Hi all,
I am three weeks into using Linux after using only Macintosh
for the past 10 years. I had a computer store install Redhat 7.1.
This 150 Pentium w/40m Ram 20gb hd should make a good first file
server. I don't want to buy a color Video card or color monitor. I
have a old monochrome monitor
When starting, it informs me eth0 initalization is delayed.
everthing else is listed as OK.
I tried /ect/hostname in Pico and found the text:
saying "Do not erase the lines below".
It read "127.0.0.1 host_name. Local domain"
Should I coment this out (#). Or replace it, with my IP and
host name ect.?
I am concerned about erasing it.
*Is this likely to be the reason for "delay eth0 initalization"
I put my info directly under the 127... line and it does not
show up anywhere.
It is a isa card, I read where autoprobe may malfunction.
*Exactly* how does one go about disabiling auto probe for the
ethernet card

Have an extra nice Day!,
