i have 2 systems and i can't seem to get the NICs of these two working. the first one has a D-Link DE-220 (ISA). the ethernet-how-to lits this as being supported and suggests the ne module w/c i've compiled in the kernel. the second machine has a linksys LE100tx (PCI) which again the ethernet-how-to lists as being supported and suggests the tulip module. upon compilation of the kernels and "integration of the hardware into the system" using yast, i get the same errors "device or resource busy" during boot time then a final "eth0 is not an interface" error. my compilation routine is as follows (stock kernel 2.2.10, SuSE 6.2): make mrproper make xconfig make dep clean bzImage make modules make modules_install bzImage --> vmlinuz update System.map /sbin/lilo is there anything i'm forgetting? i understand it if i only get an error in one machine but since i get a similar error on both machines woth different NICs and computers, there seems to be something amiss in my configuration routine. any thoughts? mac -- 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/Doku/FAQ/
