 |
|
When I boot up the kernel, I get the following lines that are errors
| Code: | * Calculating module dependencies...
* Loading module natsemi
[color=red]*[/color] Failed to load natsemi |
Then later on down I get
| Code: | * Starting metalog...
* Bringing eth0 up...
* Failed to bring eth0 up
* Please make sure that /etc/conf.d/net has $iface_eth1 set
* ERROR: Problem starting needed services.
* "netmount" was not started.
* Starting local... |
I just finished the install guide. I know that my ethernet cards have to be able to work because I used it during the install. My ethernet cards are Netgear FA311. |

did you compile the driver directly into the kernel or did you install it as module....(if as a module)..did you load them into /etc/modules.autoload....check your kernel config to be sure...if you compiled the driver directly into the kernel recompile the kernel with the driver as a module...add the module to the modules.autoload file in etc and then check your /etc/conf.d/net to be sure you have set up your connection correctly..(mine is simple dhcp so i just uncomment the iface_eth0="dhcp" line)...then you can rerun rc-update add net.eth0 default.
