Re: [Gumstix-users] 70-Persistent-net.rules file

Can you ping yourself by ping 127.0.0.1? Then your tcp/ip stack is fine!

How about the arp cache? try arp -a and see whether are there something,
arp resolves IP to Ethernet and so when I checked that I did not see any.
But I was sure my dhcp daemon as client was working and I was sure that
there is a good dhcp server broadcasting its service, you can try that by
releasing and renewing interface eth0 (my laptop which is also running Linux
so it was a quick test) you can try that with ifconfig or ipconfig for Windows.

Next I turned for help here, then I found that reseating trick worked for me!
Hope this helps!
