The reason I ask is that the default install uses two NICs. eth0 is set to 192.168.0.254, and eth1, which hooks up to the main LAN, uses DHCP. ISC DHCPD is turned on to serve IP addresses to any DHCP-using terminals. Tell us more about this boot image that you found. Is it a Rom-O-Matic image? --TP On Sun, 2005-09-18 at 18:28 -0400, Tom Simpson wrote: <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> Hi: I did manage to find a boot image that allowed the old TI/IBM PCMCIA NIC to initialize at boot on the client and go looking for the OS...but I cant get the NIC at eth0 to tell the OS on the server what its IP address is. Or something like that. I have swapped it out once and neither card (a 3com and an Intel, both known good) will do right. I am typing this from a Windows partition so I cant check on just what the errors were, but if somebody could provide me with a primer on what to look for in configuring eth0, Id appreciate it. eth1, BTW, is the nVidia NIC built into the motherboard, and it seems to work find. Funny thing is, at one point it was showing up as eth0 and the PCI NICs were showing as eth1. Wierd.
