Re: Problem with ethernet i/f
After boot-up,
dmesg gives:
ep0 at isa0 port 0x240/16 irq 11: address 00:69:70:87:12:e3, utp/aui/bnc
(default utp)
This shows that it has detected that the card is 3Com. (ep0)
The cable is also fine. I swapped a working cable.
Still it can't reach another node in the same netw.
any clues ?
thanks
ashley
