Hello All,
Okay, I still cannot get on the internet but I have received some good leads,
here's what I've done so far:
went into Drakconf
entered the two DNS numbers of my ISP
(connection still didn't work)
I think I may need to know the code or whatever it is for my "net device".
That is one of the fields I have to fill in, "net device". There are about
20 options like "eth0, eth1, s10, tr0, tr1, etc. I have a PCMCIA card in the
COM 1 slot (Joe, you mentioned that COM 1 = ttyso but that was not on the
list. Is it o or 0 by the way?) It also required for me to enter something
in the "kernel module" field. What the?
I needed to specify "which order the various name services must be probed"
(e.g. DNS, host or host,DNS are amont about 20 options). I have a cable
modem DHCP connection, does that help anyone? Also, how do I know if my
"machine is allowed to route IP packets".
Finally, I have my hard drive partitioned into a windows and linux section.
When booting up, LILO says I have both a "linux" and "linux_old" operating
system. How do I get rid of the linux_old crap?
all help is appreciated,
Andrew
