network unreachable after boot sequenceForum: Networking Topic: network unreachable after boot sequence started by: xmaned Posted by xmaned on Jan. 16 2006,11:45
helloi've just made a HD install of DSL on my laptop anytime i boot it, network is not available because the network service isn't loaded so i'd like to add "/etc/init.d/networking start" in the boot sequence which script file is to edit to add this command at the end of the boot ? thank you Posted by brobers on Jan. 28 2006,06:16
I fixed this, right or wrong, by editing the file /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig. Search the file for DHCP or net and in the body of the file you will find some stuff related to DHCP and network configuration. The block is about 10-15 lines long. I commented this all out with a "#" and after that entered /etc/init.d/networking start and saved the file. This seemed to resolve the problem. I would assume that you first need to go through the network setup tool on the desktop first before doing this or there will be no networking settings. I also found that the hostname of the system "box" was being set in this file as well. Check here for boot up configuration issues.
