This machine is currently dual boots windows/debian and is on the network. It can successfully connect to the network |
| 11 |
in either OS using the dhcp service. So I know that the problem is either software, or between the chair and the |
| 12 |
keyboard. I am currently attempting to determine if the I am the problem (i.e. dumb user skips step). |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Let me state again all that I have done. Please let me know if I skipped a step. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
1) Boot from build CD image (42MB size) |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
2) Login as root |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
3) modprobe tulip (activates network card) |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
4) dhcpcd -d eth0 |
| 23 |
|

Am I missing a step?? |

Okay. Thanks for the patient help by the way. |
