29 Okay.. done with the re-compile, ifconfig eth0 up brings up the
30 device... then doing the udhcpc -f gets me "Ooh! Got some!" and it gets
31 an IP(i can see this from the host system where dhcp is running) but for
32 some reason, (or is it like this by design?) it doesn't create the
33 default routes etc via DHCP. it also complains
34 of /share/udhcpc/default.script is not found. (this is a busybox package
35 and I don't have a /share directory in my embedded Filesystem)
36
37
38 Dropbear now runs though. :-)
39
40 but netstat gives me funny results
41
42 tcp 0 0 *:22 *:*
43 netstat: no support for 'AF INET6 (tcp)' on this system (same for udp
44 and raw)
45
46 I believe this is cause if no IPV6 support compiled in?? (but dropbear
47 runs and has a port open. but I can't get in)
48
49 Is there a need for initscripts in embedded platforms or everything runs
50 from /etc/inittab? If yes, how do I specify it? Or it isn't needed?
