华新 - Problem of Determining IP information for eth0

Problem of Determining IP information for eth0Who can solve the problem of Determining IP information for eth0?\n\nOur robot (Red Hat Linux 6.2) was experiencing a problem as follows: first, the IP address was found after log in. The second time when the robot was rebooted to confirm the IP address, response only shows 127.0.0.1. \n \nActually, the error lies mainly in \n"Bringing up interface lo [ OK ]\n\nBringing up interface eth0 Determining IP information for eth0...Operation failed.\nfailed.\n[FAILED]"\n \nWe have tried different network cables, network pins and checked the plug is well enough. Who can help us work out this problem?\n\n\nThe following are the documents showing the error messages:\n\n/dev/hda9: 3949/3407872 files (0.5% non-contiguous), 648338/6803519 blocks\n/dev/hda7 was not cleanly unmounted, check forced.\n/dev/hda7: 23/34136 files (4.3% non-contiguous), 4398/136521 blocks\n/dev/hda1 was not cleanly unmounted, check forced.\n/dev/hda1: 23582/193152 files (0.1% non-contiguous), 123717/385552 blocks\n/dev/hda5 was not cleanly unmounted, check forced.\n/dev/hda5: Setting filetype for entry 'pump.sock' in /run (12051) to 6.\n/dev/hda5: 137/34136 files (18.2% non-contiguous), 17253/136521 blocks\nChecking all file systems.\n[/sbin/fsck.ext2 -- /home] fsck.ext2 -a /dev/hda9 \n[/sbin/fsck.ext2 -- /tmp] fsck.ext2 -a /dev/hda7 \n[/sbin/fsck.ext2 -- /usr] fsck.ext2 -a /dev/hda1 \n[/sbin/fsck.ext2 -- /var] fsck.ext2 -a /dev/hda5 \n[PASSED]\n\nMounting local filesystems [ OK ]\n\nTurning on user and group quotas for local filesystems [ OK ]\n\nEnabling swap space [ OK ]\n\nINIT: Entering runlevel: 3\n\nEntering non-interactive startup\nSetting network parameters [ OK ]\n\nBringing up interface lo [ OK ]\n\nBringing up interface eth0 Determining IP information for eth0...Operation failed.\n failed.\n[FAILED]\n\nStarting portmapper: [ OK ]\n\nStarting NFS file locking services: \nStarting NFS lockd: [ OK ]\n\nStarting NFS statd: [ OK ]\n\nStarting up APM daemon: [ OK ]\n\napmd[309]: Version 3.0final (APM BIOS 1.2, Linux driver 1.9)\n\napmd[309]: Charge: * * * (-1% unknown)\n\nInitializing random number generator [ OK ]\n\nMounting other filesystems [ OK ]\n\nStarting system logger: [ OK ]\n\nStarting kernel logger: [ OK ]\n\nStarting identd: [ OK ]\n\nStarting at daemon: [ OK ]\n\nStarting cron daemon: [ OK ]\n\nStarting INET services: [ OK ]\n\nStarting keytable [ OK ]\n\nStarting httpd: [ OK ]\n\nStarting linuxconf [ OK ]\n\n\n\nRed Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot)\nKernel 2.2.14-5.0 on an i686\n\nprod1 login: if^H^H^H\n\n\nRed Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot)\nKernel 2.2.14-5.0 on an i686\n\nprod1 login: root\nPassword: \nLast login: Thu Nov 27 20:33:28 on tty1\n\0337\033[r\033[999;999H\033[6n\0338COLUMNS=80;\nLINES=24;\nexport COLUMNS LINES;\n[root@prod1 /root]# ifconfig\nlo Link encap:Local Loopback \n inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0\n UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3924 Metric:1\n RX packets:18 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0\n TX packets:18 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0\n collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 \n\n[root@prod1 /root]# shutwo\b \b\b \bdown now\n\a\n\nBroadcast message from root (ttyS0) Thu Nov 27 20:56:52 2003...\n\n\n\n\nThe system is going down to maintenance mode NOW !!\n\n[root@prod1 /root]# \nINIT: Switching to runlevel: 1\n\n\nINIT: Stopping keytable [ OK ]\n\nShutting down http: [ OK ]\n\nStopping INET services: [ OK ]\n\nStopping at daemon: [ OK ]\n\nStopping cron daemon: [ OK ]\n\nStopping identd services: [ OK ]\n\nShutting down NFS file locking services: \nShutting down NFS lockd: [FAILED]\n\nShutting down NFS statd: [ OK ]\n\nShutting down APM daemon: [ OK ]\n\nStopping portmap services: [ OK ]\n\nShutting down interface eth0 [ OK ]\n\nShutting down kernel logger: [ OK ]\n\nShutting down system logger: [ OK ]\n\nSending all processes the TERM signal...\n\nINIT: no more processes left in this runlevel\n\nSending all procmd: recovery thread got woken up ...\n\nesses the KILL smd: recovery thread finished ...\n\nignal..\nmdrecoveryd(6) flushing signals.\n\n\033[H\033[JInitializing random number generator [ OK ]\n\nTelling INIT to go to single user mode.\n\nINIT: Going single user\n\nbash# \nLILO boot: \nLoading linux............\nLinux version 2.2.14-5.0 (root@porky.devel.redhat.com) (gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)) #1 Tue Mar 7 21:07:39 EST 2000\n\nDetected 1002286092 Hz processor.\n\nConsole: colour VGA+ 80x25\n\nCalibrating delay loop... 999.42 BogoMIPS\n\nMemory: 127916k/131072k available (1060k kernel code, 412k reserved, 1620k data, 64k init, 0k bigmem)\n\nDentry hash table entries: 262144 (order 9, 2048k)\n\nBuffer cache hash table entries: 131072 (order 7, 512k)\n\nPage cache hash table entries: 32768 (order 5, 128k)\n\nVFS: Diskquotas version dquot_6.4.0 initialized\n\nCPU: Intel Pentium III (Coppermine) stepping 06\n\nEnabling extended fast FPU save and restore...done.\n\nNot enabling KNI unmasked exception support\n\nException 19 error handler not integrated yet\n\nDisabling CPUID Serial number...done.\n\nChecking 386/387 coupling...

come in1. Make sure the ethernet card is recognized and driver module is loaded on startup. can u paste the result of the following two commands:
lspci --- List all pci device
lsmod --- List loaded modules

2. If your ethernet card is not well configured, configure again using "netconfig". If you have a static IP, just give all the informations, if using DHCP, then choose dhcp.

3. After configuration, restart the networking

/etc/init.d/network restart

Good luck

(引用 Cowboy:suggestionBecause the driver modules already loaded, u can try to bring up the network manually by run #/etc/init.d/network re...)I partly solove the problem, but...I changed the hostname temperorily to other rather than prod1 and used netconfig to set an ip for the robot. Then network works.

It seems that the hostname of the robot is colliding with other pc at NUS.

So I change the content of HOSTNAME, hosts, host.conf and expect the hostname will be changed permainently. But after reboot, the hostname changed back to prod1 as well as the content of HOSTNAME.

Could you please advice on how to work out this problem? Lots of Thanks.

BTW, maybe #/etc/init.d/network restart should be #/etc/networks restart[xuechlai (11-29 17:06, Long long ago)] [ 传统版 | sForum ][登录后回复]7楼

(引用 xuechlai:I partly solove the problem, but...I changed the hostname temperorily to other rather than prod1 and used netconfig to set an ip...)tryIf you want to change the hostname , do this:

1. Change it in /etc/sysconfig/network.

2. Change it in /etc/hosts.

3. Issue the command "hostname newhostname".

Now it's done and will also be remembered at next boot.
