Hello -
I can do
ifconfig sm0 dhcp
from Lolo and get an IP address and even ping my gateway. However, when I start linux, there is no device sm0 and the eth0 device wont start as expected. The IP I get when I use ifconfig from Lolo is 192.168.1.119. I've tried various things:
starting the kernel with:
exec root=/dev/hda1 ip=dhcp
and
exec root=/dev/hda1 ip=192.168.1.119
with no success (with and without having Lolo bring up the adapter first)
I've also tried the following after the kernel comes up:
ip addr add 192.168.1.119/24 dev eth0
ip link set eth0 up
After the second command I get the response:
smc_open: ERROR: remote fault.
smc_open: ERROR: cable not connected.
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Link has been severed
and I still cannot ping out (the cable is fine, I was able to ping from Lolo).
I get the same error message when I try:
/sbin/dhcpd eth0
Any ideas? Thanks.
