Okay, replying to my own mail. Might help someone with a similar problem. This seems to be a problem with Fedora Core and pcmcia network cards. I had debian on this machine previously hence I don't know if this problem affected any of the other RedHat distros. It seems that on bootup, network is brought up before pcmicia. Hence the card is not detected at bootup. The trick is to start network after pcmcia. Rename the link /etc/rc5.d/S10network to /etc/rc5.d/S27network. Pcmcia starts at S24 so I guess any number after 24 should do the trick for startng network. Okay this problem solved, now see my other mail on debian not detecting the card on installation. moral ofthe story CTFSE :) regards, Sharukh. ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
