[S.u.S.E. Linux] Installation problems
by domlife＠domlife.com 08 Jun '98

08 Jun '98

1. Linux 5.2 is base-installed, under default package configuration plus components from 'n' (network) package set. 2. Boot looks fine. named is started (although I am not sure I set up anything for that expllicitly, probably under 'portmap' daemon) 3. eth0 is set up and works fine. 4. ppp0 is set up, both local and remote IP are 0.0.0.0 5. local ping works fine (ovr the LAN segment subnet). Now is the big one. 6. ping to an outside IP returns "Network is unreachable" Log of /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-up <provider> returns no errors and shoes 2 IPs assigned (local/remote). That is all I know. my best e-mail address: vicco(a)domlife.com (disregard the one in the header, if different) Looking forward very much for your reply.

And sometimes it happens that problems cannot be solved on the spot. leave it for a week and try to look at it from another angle.

Hey guys, Does anyone have an english version of /usr/doc/packages/firewall/Firewall-Mini-Howto.* (ps or txt). This SuSE specific HOWTO is in german and my interpretation qualities are not up to par.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] 5.2 and Adaptec 2940UW
by alan＠abstraction.compulink.co.uk 30 Apr '98

30 Apr '98

Hello all! I've just got 5.2 and started to try to upgrade my system.... BUT.... when it comes to finding the SCSI card it hangs. The card is an Adaptec 2940UW and I'm trying to load the correct driver module. I get the same result if I try to use the kernel with support compiled into it (copied from the CD to a floppy) The system that I installed using 5.1 works fine with this card, as it has to as the CDROM drive is SCSI. The messages that I get are:- (scsi0:-1:-1:-1) bad scbptr 16 during SELTO (scsi0:-1:-1:-1) referenced SCB255 not valid during SELTO SCSISEQ = 0x5a SEQADDR = 0x8 STAT0 = 0x15 SSTAT1 = 0x8a This scrolls up the screen, with a further message every 5 secs or so about abort and reset (I think) but it is too fast to read. The only way out is CTRL/ALT/DEL or reset button on the computer. I have tried updating using the boot disc from 5.1 but it gets into YaST and says that the CD is the wrong one! I have also tried using my previously generated rescue disc. Any suggestions?? Thanks for reading this far!! System Info: Micronics Twister ATX Motherboard. AMD K6 200MHz Adaptec 2940UW ver.1.25 BIOS 3COM 905 Network card Matrox Millenium II video card. System works fine with S.u.S.E 5.1 and kernel 2.0.32 with compiled-in support for the SCSI card, and network card. -- Cheers!
