Have been running Fedora on an older thinkpad (600X)
since its release using a 3COM PC-Card networking card. After a few
updates I am running into problems with the network not starting up properly.
If I do a normal unattended reboot everything appears to come-up normally
but the network isn’t functioning (can’t resolve/ping anything
beyond localhost). If I do a hard shutdown and go through the file check
sequence everything works. The machine is usable but it is pretty
annoying (and dangerous) to always have to crash it when I’m rebooting. Any ideas what is going on here? Is there a way
to force the network to start when it comes-up without properly initializing? John |
