LiveCD and netcard
« on: April 18, 2010, 10:56:02 PM »
Hi everybody,

I am just in doubt to migrate to TC from DSL. I do not have, until now, an answer.

I am trying to see how TC is working with a LiveCD; first try first issue: it do noting with the netcard. I tryed something with ifconfig but I had no result.

After some more tries I left the GUI for console and here I tryed again the same commands that I did with ifconfig but now appears something new:

first TC user:
Code: [Select]
~$ ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 up nohdcp
     ifconfig:SIOCSIFADDR:Permission denied

second with sudo:
Code: [Select]
~$ sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 up nohdcp
     e100:eth0:e100_request_firmware:Failed to load firmware "e100/d101s_ucode.bin":-2
     ifconfig:SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory

The very same hardware is working fine with DSL kernel 2.4.31.
My wish is to have kernel 2.6. but DSL do not have it.

Any ideas?

Thank you so much,
Teokan
