<div id="post_message_3173012"><br>I was unable install redhat linux 9.x on my machine and the installation was hanging at "probing pci hardware(bus00)" message<br>
So After googling i found an answer and i was suggested to use<u> "linux all-generic-ide irqpoll pci=nommconf" <br>
</u>.<br>
with ABOVE suggesstion ,i could install linux on my machine.<br>
but i ve to edit my grub.conf kernel paramter.<br>
i.e i had to append "linux all-generic-ide irqpoll pci=nommconf" flag
to kerenel parameter as i ve installed the OS using same flag else OS
is nt getting loaded.<br>
<br>
But due to the above way of installation,my NIC is not detected.<br>
<br>ive entere below command <br>#ifconfig eth0 <a href="http://101.33.122.33">101.33.122.33</a><br>
<br>
and the error is "eth0:error fetching interface informaiton"<br>
<br>
my ethernet card is workng properly and the drivers are also available,<br>
as i can see my driver name(e1000) through lsmod and also my device through lspci.<br>
But why has this error occured and how to recover.<br>
<br>Please suggest me a solution.<br>
