[10-28-04 10:33]: Let's see if we can get more info. I'm on 9.2 right now (this was about 9.0, right?), but I think this has not changed:
In /etc/sysconfig/network/config, set the variable 'DEBUG' to 'yes', and report any error messages.
good idea, results (boot.mst):
S05network [DEBUG] (returned 0)done eth0 ifup [DEBUG] eth0 -o onboot rc ifup [DEBUG] HWDESC = eth0 CONFIG = eth0 INTERFACE = nointerface ifup [DEBUG] Could not get a valid interface name: -> skipped
I did read through 9.0's ifup script, it seems to be a hardware issue: either something with the interface's kernel-module, or the hardware itself. As Knoppix and others work well, I think the hardware is ok. How about the related kernel-module? - Was the kernel updated recently? - What is the related kernel-module? - Anything in /var/log/{messages,warn}? Idea: put a modprobe <kernel-module> in /etc/init.d/boot.local, perhaps followed by a sleep 5 or so to allow the card to settle down. If the kernel-module supports an argument to generate (debugging-) info, enable that.
S05network [DEBUG] (returned 7)failed ifup-route [DEBUG] noiface -o onboot rc ifup-route [DEBUG] unknown option rc ignored
This is not an error - let's disregard it.
<notice>exit status of (network) is (0)
