The wd1100.o I used is from Bering-uClibc_modules_2.4.33.tar.gz, which is in the 3.0 beta 2 package on the leaf sourceforge site. I get this when I run 'tar tvfz' against the tarball. -rw-r--r-- root/root 5316 2006-08-13 13:49 2.4.33/kernel/drivers/char/wd1100.o Is it possible it's the wrong file? How big is one known to work? I looked again at my modules.lrp package. I was wrong about having commented out the line installing wd1100. So your explanation makes sense: it's not shorewall's fault. I'm impressed, though, that the timeout always catches shorewall at exactly the same point in its startup sequence. I'll rename configdb.lrp and try again -- though I'll have to wait until my daughter can live without her 'net connection for a bit, just in case I have to open up the box again. :-) Thanks, --Eric > > I just tried installing Bering-uClibc_3.0-beta2 on a WRAP box and got > > the device into an infinite reboot loop.
