Dear Bernhard, As you recommend, I send the output of dmesg and lspci when the livecd installation pgm is running and when the resulting disk system is running. Actually, the lspci output is identical in the two cases, and the two relevent lines are ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00:14.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP51 Ethernet Controller (rev a1) 04:06.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (rev 11) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The dmesg outputs differ, however. ---------------------------livecd--------------------------------------------------------- forcedeth.c: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver.

I think something else has gone wrong with your forcedeth driver. Gordon, maybe you could post the detailed feedback your system gives to you when try using the forcedeth driver. Sometimes it's a little bit confusing, which of both LAN adapters is eth0 and which eth1. I guess you have to disable the forcedeth driver from your kernel to use your D-LINK adapter as eth0. rgds Bernhard -- [email protected] mailing list
