Hi, no respone on similar threads let me try to hook on this one as it seems similar: I want to set up my Edubuntu System on DHCP working on Ports 1067/1068. It worked fine under feisty but with the same porcedure, I get no success under gusty. The first DHCP-Reqest with the Boot Floppy works fine. On the 2nd one, Booting the Client-Root , the System stopps with eth0 waiting forever under Gusty. Do you have any idea?? - I work on this for a month now!! toni Am Montag, den 26.11.2007, 12:34 -0500 schrieb Jim Kronebusch: > On Mon, 26 Nov 2007 08:42:00 -0500, Randall Swift wrote > > "R.
