RE: [SLE] DHCP & Networking (partial success)

Hi, I updated the bootloader file with "acpi=off" and did "rcnetwork restart" but still no connectivity. Ran "grep -i eth0 /var/log/boot.msg", output below. I'm not sure what to look for. eth0 (DHCP) <notice>startproc: execve (/sbin/dhcpcd) [ /sbin/dhcpcd -H -D -N -t 999999 -h linux eth0 ], [ CONSOLE=/dev/console TERM=linux SHELL=/bin/sh OLDPWD=/etc/sysconfig/network progress=24 INIT_VERSION=sysvinit-2.82 RUN_FROM_RC=yes REDIRECT=/dev/tty1 COLUMNS=148 PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/etc/sysconfig/network/scripts vga=0x31a RUNLEVEL=5 PWD=/etc/sysconfig/network PREVLEVEL=N LINES=51 HOME=/ SHLVL=4 splash=silent sscripts=37 _=/sbin/startproc DAEMON=/sbin/dhcpcd ] Ran "grep on the /var/log/messages" and "dmesg" and received: eth0: no IPv6 routers present CB -----Original Message----- From: humvee [mailto:humvee@btopenworld.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2004 6:26 AM To: Batt Family; suse e mailing list Subject: Re: [SLE] DHCP & Networking (partial success) Hi CB Sorry you are not fully connected yet. Did you adjust the bootloader file to "acpi=off" ? Do this via YAST2 > Misc > Bootloader configuration? Have you returned all the eth0 configurations to the default for dhcp/dns (because if like me you had tried different combinations of settings it might be screwed up!!)

I'm still not connecting to the internet but at least Linux sees my Ethernet controller now. Thanks to Humvee for helping me find and load a compatible driver. I ran a couple of suggested commands and received the below information. Any more help would be appreciated.

I ran "ifstatus eth0" and received "dhcpcd running, eth0 not up.

Ran "ip addr show" and got:
