lost eth0 with kernel upgrade

Message

DewmSolo · Post by **DewmSolo** » Mon Jan 30, 2006 3:39 am

Hi everyone.

I just passed from 2.6.14-r5 to 2.6.15-r1.

Compilation and configuration went fine...system boots up fine too....except for when it comes to setting my networking...

When it tries to get an ip from the DHCP I get the message

Code: Select all

eth0 does not exist

I searched on here in the forums, but I didn't find much.

Can someone help?

What is the output of lspci and/or ifconfig?

burtoncarl · Post by **burtoncarl** » Mon Jan 30, 2006 4:03 am

I am having the same problem, AMD64(x86_64).

My ifconfig only shows the loopback

You most likely forgot to compile support for your network card into your kernel. Run lspci and see what type of NIC you have then enable it in the kernel, recompile and reboot.

Few details to help you on the forums:

1) List some details as to what driver/module your using. Your eth0 isn't working is not much help to anyone trying to help you.
It is good you mentioned your using DHCP, but without other info, it isn't anything to go on.
What driver/module are you using (kernel version also)
What is the output of lsmod? Is it showing your driver/module loaded?
If you don't know what driver/module your using. Results from lspci command like asiB4 mentions can help others tell you what module.
Did you see any errors at bootup? It can still bootup even though you get errors.
Is the driver compiled into the kernel or is it compiled as a loadable module?

2) When you say you passed to another kernel, did you use genkernel or manually configure and compile yourself? Mentioning the
kernel is good though. I have a friend that just changed to the 2.6.15 gentoo kernel and had to go back to using the sk98lin ethernet module.
But with same MB I was able to use the skge and same kernel.

3) Did you do any other updates that might have caused this? Like emerge system or world?
Have you checked your /etc/conf.d/net config file to see if it is setup correctly?

4) Gentoo forums search sucks. Use google and just put gentoo in front of your search. Works a lot better.

I'm not saying you have to scrap together every piece of info you can think of to post. But not providing details leads to a bunch of banter
back and forth and getting no where. I'm not picking on you, just seeing too many people posting without giving a few details about the case.

yup...ensure dhcpcd is running at the default run level, your /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/conf.d/net is setup correctly and you have the correct features and drivers compiled in the kernel, and you have initiated eth0 at the default runlevel as well (rc-update add net.eth0 default). If you are not able to lspci...need to emerge pciutils. Good Luck!

lspci returns:

Code: Select all

04:04.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0c)

So I compiled the Intel PRO/100+ Support in the kernel

Could be the wrong driver though....

Remember my nic worked and still does when I boot with my 2.6.14-r5 kernel.....so is there a way for me to find out which driver/module it uses for this nic???

lsmod on 2.6.14-r5 returns:

Code: Select all

rtc
usbcore                                 usbhid,ohci_hcd,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd

lsmod on 2.6.15-r1 returns nothing....the list is empty....something wrong here

I did run an emerge world lately ...but I was still using my old kernel...and that one still works...just the new kernel that doesn't work. My runlevels shouldn't have changed either ...and my conf files should remain the same shouldn't they?

I just booted again with this new kernel and I found an error:

Code: Select all

ERROR: Problem starting needed services "netmount" was not started

That seems to indicate that you compiled it 'in' the kernel, verses as a 'module'. If you didn't compile it as a module you won't see it
in lsmod ouput.

It looks like the 'e100' showing in your (2.6.14 ) lsmod output is it.

I'm don't have access to my linux box right now to do a kernel search on names and such. But:
According to my google search you need the eepro100 driver for you nic card.

This pages http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/cs-006103.htm though leads me to believe that the eepro100 shows up
in lsmod as the e100 .

Sorry not much help right now.

DewmSolo · Post by **DewmSolo** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 3:22 am

Not much help???

Well I still want to thank you very much....apparently you got it right. My kernel is recompiling right now.

I added eepro100...that's the only thing I changed

i just enter my make && make modules_install and looked at the output.....and there it was it checking for dependencies or something like that and I saw eepro100.o and guess what e100.o . They were being merged in the new kernel.

It is still getting object files at the moment, so I'm gonna go do something else for a little while and come back to check on it.

I'll post ASAP what comes out of this compilation.

Thanks to you.

Decibels · Post by **Decibels** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 11:21 am

Cool!! Being on a windows only box at work, wasn't sure how much help I would be.

Hope that fixes it for you. Be sure to put [solved] in the subject line if works for you.

Cheers

*Later (12:58pm):

I'll post ASAP what comes out of this compilation.

Boy, your kernel must be a doozy, still compiling.

A little background, I'm not a complete linux newbie, had it running for 2 years(Redhat => SuSE => Gentoo).
But I always seem to have problems with new gentoo installation when booting for the first time. Here is all the info I have at the moment.

I assume your using the forcedeth module for your ethernet. From the first part it looks like you haven't setup
/etc/conf.d/net for your ethernet controller. Do you have it set for 'dhcp'?

Also, what baselayout version are you using?

Also, I see e100 in dmesg, but

Code: Select all

Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3)

from what I can tell uses forcedeth.

burtoncarl · Post by **burtoncarl** » Sun Feb 05, 2006 3:27 pm

yes the gentoo livecd loads the forcedeth, I'm not sure which option that is in the kernel config though.

I have emerged DHCP and was going to use that until I got around to setting up the IPs like I wanted.

I think if I could get it to use the forcedeth mod I would be alright...

And here's a silly question, where would I look to find out what baselayout I am using?

This is what I'm thinking:

You have an nvidia controller (onboard ethernet, right?). For various nvidia hardware, the official driver is proprietary, and therefore not included in the kernel source tree. You'll either have to emerge the driver using chroot on the livecd, or you'll have to download it from the nvidia website. I think you'll want the nforce driver.

http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html

EDIT:

I should have read the previous 2 posts. Forcedeth, AFAIK, is also not included in the kernel source tree. You should be able to install it my chroot'ing into your system from the livecd.

burtoncarl · Post by **burtoncarl** » Sun Feb 05, 2006 4:34 pm

cool, I've emerged nvidia-kernel, and am re-emerging gentoo-sources. BTW correct assumption on the onboard ethernet.

Will post when I have results

burtoncarl · Post by **burtoncarl** » Sun Feb 05, 2006 8:33 pm

got it, once in menuconfig I selected the "nForce reverce engineered" driver under the network device drivers.

Solved for me, not sure about DewmSolo tho.

It is one of my two ethernet controllers for my nforce board. It is in my gentoo-2.6.15-r1 kernel as

Code: Select all

Under:
Device Drivers  ---> Network device support  --->  Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)  ---> 
<M>   Reverse Engineered nForce Ethernet support (EXPERIMENTAL)

So compile it as a module, add forcedeth to your /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 file.
Then configure your /etc/conf.d/net for either dhcp or static ip,.......
Add net.eth0 to your default runlevel: rc-update add net.eth0 default

Note: /etc/init.d/net.eth0 is just a symlink to your /etc/init.d/net.lo file.

Code: Select all

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     6 Jan 26 05:33 net.eth0 -> net.lo

So if you don't have it, just: ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.eth0
to symlink it.

You should be able to follow the gentoo install docs once you know WHICH module to use and it is the forcedeth.
The hard part is probably configuring /etc/conf.d/net cause that file is a little hard to understand sometimes.

You figured it out while I was posting. Cool.
DewmSolo, I figure he got it, just didn't feel like reporting back or forgot.
