SuSE 9.1 failed Setting up network after network-installation
Hallo, i have installed SuSE 9.1 with autoyast successfully - nearly :-) After a complete installation over network, SuSE "failed Setting up network". lsmod show the right module for network-card (for example: 3c59x) ifconfig show only lo0 and sit0 the network-part of autoyast-config (which was ok for SuSE 9.0) is <networking> <dns> <dhcp_hostname config:type="boolean">true</dhcp_hostname> <dhcp_resolv config:type="boolean">true</dhcp_resolv> <domain></domain> <hostname></hostname> <nameservers config:type="list"/> <searchlist config:type="list"/> </dns> <interfaces config:type="list"> <interface> <bootproto>dhcp</bootproto> <device>eth0</device> <startmode>onboot</startmode> <wireless>no</wireless> </interface> </interfaces> <modules config:type="list"> <module_entry> <device>eth0</device> </module_entry> </modules> <routing> <ip_forward config:type="boolean">false</ip_forward> <routes config:type="list"/> </routing> </networking> can anyone help please thanks and best regards enrico
I haven't used 9.1 yet, but when network problems have come up in 9.0 just going into yast2 and either editing the card entry to be eth0 or delete and readd the card under eth0. Mike On Wed, 5 May 2004, Hoepfner, Enrico wrote:

Hi, You will notice that in 9.1 network configuration in general has completly changed (not in autoyast, but in general). In the case below, could you try and install without this: <modules config:type="list"> <module_entry> <device>eth0</device> </module_entry> </modules> Thanks, Anas Hoepfner, Enrico wrote:

Hi Anas, Thanks for answer! I try install how you descripe, without success. get the same result. that's not the solution. enrico Anas Nashif wrote:

Your problem is interesting, which is why I respond despite your top-posting. Please learn to quote. With the kernel module in you should have the card. Does eth0 show up if you issue 'ifconfig -a' ? Second question. Is the dhcp client process running? Run a 'ps aux | grep dhcp' and report the results. I'm also curious as to what the generated setup is, could you post /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0, please?

ifconfig -a shows only "lo" and "sit0"
Very strange. That means that the kernel module hasn't initialised the network card. Is there a problem with the driver itself? In the case of your 3c59x card, try 'rmmod 3c59x; insmod 3c59x'. What happens? What does 'ifconfig -a' say afterwards? What do you get from 'grep eth0 /etc/modules.conf'? I'm just trying to determine whether the problem is in fact with autoyast or whether it's more basic than that.
Second question. Is the dhcp client process running? Run a 'ps aux | grep dhcp' and report the results. I'm also curious as to what the generated setup is, could you post /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0, please?
dhcp-client isn't running
No surprise, there's no interface for it to be running on.
in /etc/sysconfig/network there is a files "ifcfg-eth--"
the content of ifcfg-eth-- is the following:
BOOTPROTO='dhcp' STARTMODE='onboot' UNIQUE='37TO.2+bt1HBvFf1' WIRELESS='no' _type='eth'
This is wrong, and not what you should be getting from autoyast - unless there's something fundamentally wrong with network card or driver so that autoyast fails to detect your card. Are you running a 2.6 kernel? Which version of 2.6 comes with SuSE 9.1? A quick google confirms that there's a bug in the 3c59x driver at least until 2.6.5 - if that's the case you may have to update the kernel manually...

Wasn't /etc/modules.conf renamed to /etc/modprobe.conf on SuSE 9.1 ? Cheers, Leen

i try install with autoyast another network-card (e1000) and it works fine. when i install the computer with the 3c59x card manually (not by autoyast) the network-configuraiton is ok (ifconfig shows eth0, dhspcd is running) Could it be a problem, which have autoyast with this network-card ??
