I can safely set the debian machine with a static address and switch dhcp off in the router, so I'll do that. It's a home network, I don't care if other PCs won't have net access while I do this. > If you have the mtdX it should be easy to create a bootable image, just > follow Martins description on the recovery page - look for initrd and > kernel links on the page.

Thank you very much for your support, I'll document what I do and report back. I'll let you know if everything was fine or if I need some more info. thanks everybody, Iacopo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
