Description Mike Kaufman 2003-11-15 19:41:30 UTC

After installing a new gentoo system from an old one (chrooting)
I found that with 2.4.22-ck kernel /sbin/dhcpcd was failing to find my IP.

Using the gentoo-sources kernel (2.24.20-gentoo-r8) solved the problem.

Both kernels used the same kernel configuration.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. compile 2.4.22-ck kernel
2. reboot
3. watch eth0 fail to come up.




kernel config supplied.
let me know if you need additional information.

Created attachment 20798 [details]
kernel config used for ck-sources

gentoo-sources kernel modified the file on save, but I didn't manually change
anything between kernels.

Looks like this is upstream then. Can I recommend that you take this problem over to Con Kolivas <kernel at kolivas dot org> as we can't do much with external patchsets.
