Title: Internet isn't working after usb boot on micro core.
Post by: apuboard on November 16, 2015, 03:10:06 AM

So I booted the Micro Core Linux on an APU. Now, I was trying to install it on the SSD with tc-install but my internet doesn't work. How do I have to troubleshoot.
This is the output I got for ifconfig:
tc@box:~$ ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0D:B9:3E:D1:F4
          UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)

Or do you have other possiblities to install the micro core from usb?

Use tinycore or coreplus.  They contain the installer.

Hi apuboard
You don't have an IP address assigned. Create a script called  eth0.sh  and save it in  /opt

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
pkill udhcpc
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.30 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 up
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
echo nameserver 68.237.161.12 > /etc/resolv.conf
echo nameserver 71.243.0.12 >> /etc/resolv.confChange the addresses to values suitable for your environment, then:

Code: [Select]

chmod 775 /opt/eth0.sh
sudo /opt/eth0.shThen run  ifconfig  again and see if it has an IP address assigned. You are running a wired connection, not wireless, right?
