The machine is hanging at boot time. Not exactly sure where or why.
WIreless is working, but it's not getting setup correctly at boot
time. To get past this I created a file /root/scripts/wireless witht
he following commands:
#!/bin/bash
iwconfig wlan0 mode Managed
iwconfig wlan0 ESSID XXXXXX
iwconfig wlan0 key open XXXXX
dhclient
These commands work at the command line and wireless comes up fine. I
did not try the script file by hand. My mistake.
I added a call to this file in /etc/rc.local and rebooted. The machine
hangs bringin up the network.
I tried booting in Knoppix. I see the file but Knoppix is not letting
me edit it.
All I want to do now is remove the call in rc.local.
How can I do this, preferably with the FC2 disks.
Thanks,
Mark
