I'm sorry, I mean a dhcp client, not a server, the dhcp server should already be on the network. The most popular and easiest client IMHO is dhcpcd.

Re: [gentoo-ppc-user] Compile error on IDE Power Mac driver
Hi, Have you a separate boot partition using a ext2 fs? I found that to be the best way to boot using yaboot. I don't use it mounted on boot time but it is on fstab as /boot. The root fs is then anything you compiled statically on the kernel (or the initrd supports). Best luck. G. 2005/11/7, Charles Trois [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Michael Hanselmann a écrit : You should set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_PCI, see drivers/ide/ide-dma.c. Thanks. I did that and the kernel compiled without trouble, but, at boot, I still get the error cannot open root device. However, there is a difference: whereas the message said unknown-block(0,0), it now says unknown-block(3,15). So it would seem that the device numbers have changed. The result is the same, whether config BLK_DEV_IDE_PMAC_ATA100FIRST is on or not. I take the liberty to attach a copy of my .config and yaboot.conf files for your inspection.
