People,
I'm having a bit of a problem with a boxes. I would like to upgrade its network card from 10mb to 100mb. .... i put in the new cards and boot up. The system boots fine but gives errors against the network card driver load as of course the card has changed ... i edit conf.modules so that the alias points at the new driver module and the line in rc.config which had the module name in as well (right at the top i think it has something to do with loading modules v. early in the boot sequence....) .... when i reboot it still fails to come up properly appearing to load the old module still....? huh?
Maybe you need to do a mk.initrd? To make a new initrd for lilo to use. You probably should run lilo once after mk.initrd, just to be sure. mk.initrd reads the rc.config file and builds a new ram disk image using the initrd modules specified in rc.config Another alternative is to drop initrd out of lilo.conf and rebuild a kernel with your new module built in. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
