Networking :: No access to the internet with the new computer :(



I have tried DSL-N 0.1 RC4 now as well.
Unfortunately this doesn't work on my machine.
Screen is frozen after boot.

Furthermore I have tried Knoppix 5.1.1.
Internet is working again! Yeah! :-)
Now I really know that it is the kernel which doesn't give me access to the internet with DSL 3.2 or DSL 3.3.

I wanted to try DSL 2.0 as well ( as it has a newer 2.4.(31) kernel for some reason ) but it stopped booting after some seconds. Reason: CD-Rom not found!
I'm using a SATA-DVD-drive and a SATA-harddisk.
Seems that kernel 2.4.26 doesn't like my SATA-drives.

I hope my SATA drives and my onboard network-card will be recognized again with the next DSL version, doesn't matter if kernel 2.4.xx or 2.6.xx.
It should be updated quite soon. Thanks.

Use 2.1 (b) for sata boot time modules (as suggested in the thread I posted - see changelog notes for more details)

Not sure about dsl-n as I have not used it much, but you can probably find something related to your m/b chipset.
