------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-09 13:11 ------- Apparently, the machine names with zeroconf or not is still buggy, sometimes names reappear, disappear : blanking the zeroconf name does not eliminate it, it reappears after booting... After putting back new names I have still the weird eth0 failed (even using service network start in console), but after saying it has failed, the eth0 interface is brought up correctly. It may be a problem between drakconnect and the new netprofile. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: Not sure this is related to initscripts. I installed 9.2 RC1 and updated to cooker 03/09. I connect to a LAN in my university by DHCP. After installing, at boot, the step "Bringing up Eth0" was working immediately. I played around with Drakconnect and leaved machine names blank in both name and zeroconf name to have default names. Now, when booting, "Bringing up Eth0" pauses for 30 seconds before writing [FAILED]. Surprisingly, after starting, network is working, and my DHCP server has given a correct IP (as checked with ifconfig). I guess there is a problem in the booting sequence that makes it prevent getting DHCP information. How can I check what happens. I'll try to reproduce it.
