Re: [Ipodlinux-devel] Ethernet over firewire

[Jonathan C. R. <jon...@ba...>]

Hi Bernard,

thanks for your quick reply!  I tried your /etc/rc; now I can't even
ping it anymore.  The output looked very promising - up to and including
'Command: ifconfig eth 192.10.1.2'.  No errors seen before then.  But
then comes:

	'Execution finished, Exiting.'

I don't even get the 'bus reset' messages I had been seeing before when
I probe eth1394 on the host.  Is this inittab correct? 

	inet:unknown:/bin/inetd

Thanks for your help! Oh, and... I'll mess around a bit more with the
CVS version before giving up, if you don't mind!

Cheers,
	Jonathan

P.S. B.t.w., did I mention in my last post that I have a 3g model?
