Now, can you go and enable all network cards and insert printk() statement s to see where exactly it hangs?

Some other ethernet driver is hanging. In linux/dev/drivers/net/Space.c you can add printk's to the autoprobe like this: #if defined(CONFIG_NE2000) && ne_probe(dev) #endif #ifdef CONFIG_AT1500 && (printk("X") || 1) && at1500_probe(dev) #endif #ifdef CONFIG_FMV18X /* Fujitsu FMV-181/182 */ && (printk("X") || 1) && fmv18x_probe(dev) #endif etc. You only need to put them after NE2000, because this card is recognized. Then you count the X and know in which autoprobe it hangs. Voila. Of course, you need to compile with all network cards. > Is there a Hurd FAQ? Maybe the above instructions could go > there? Sorry, but we should try to fix the problem. A work around is useful, but only as much as it helps to identify the real problem. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
