At booting minimal install CD 2006.1: # MD5 HASH b993fed8dfa1b82d5cf0506cf7ded8fe install-x86-minimal-2006.1.iso eth device is detected but it seems that there's someting wrong with DHCP. * Network device eth0 detected, DHCP broadcasting for IP ... When booting is finished eth0 is not configured. I have to manualy run: livecd root # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start * Starting eth0 * Configuration not set for eth0 - assuming DHCP * Bringing up eth0 * dhcp * Running dhcpcd ... [ ok ] * eth0 received address 10.22.10.226/24 and now everything is ok. Tested on two x86 PCs. 1st: livecd root # lspci | grep -i eth 09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5752 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02) livecd root # dmesg | grep -i eth eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM5752KFBG) rev 6002 PHY(5752)] (PCI Express) 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet 00:15:c5:38:1e:de eth0: RXcsums[1] LinkChgREG[1] MIirq[1] ASF[0] Split[0] WireSpeed[1] TSOcap[1] eth0: dma_rwctrl[76180000] dma_mask[64-bit] tg3: eth0: Link is up at 100 Mbps, full duplex. tg3: eth0: Flow control is off for TX and off for RX. 2nd: livecd root # lspci | grep -i eth 00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 91) livecd root # dmesg | grep -i eth eth0: SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet at 0xe400, IRQ 19, 00:11:d8:33:64:9c. eth0: Media Link On 100mbps full-duplex
I can confirm this one. After boot, 'ps auxwww' shows '/sbin/dhcpcd -h livecd -o eth0' running. After a few minutes, eth0 is still not up. I killed dhcpcd and ran the same command by hand, and it obtained an IP immediately.
Yeah, the same problem happens here. dhcpcd eth0 gives errors also. But killing dhcpcd and running it again should work in most cases.
I have updated dhcpcd in the snapshot, which means a new CD needs to be created with it. This affected all architectures.
Latest build fixes this.
