Hi,
My name is Shawn Perkins and I seem to be having problems with my
Ethernet port on my advantech single board computer. Using pwlconfig, I
rebuilt the kernel with the appropriate Ethernet driver, configured the
system, and downloaded the whole ball of wax to my flash card. The
system boots up and when I try to configure eth0 (ifconfig eth0
192.168.1.1) I get a message saying no such device. I do notice when the
kernel is booting it configures a device called 'brg0' this can be
configured with an IP, but does not seem to work for passing traffic.
Does anyone have some ideas, it's probably something very simple I'm
overlooking. I believe the onboard Ethernet chip is made by Realtek.
 
Also, on to a different topic, has anyone been able to get the Linksys
USB 100M to work with PeeWee? It's a USB Ethernet adapter, and I believe
it's using the Pegasus chipset. Once I get the onboard Ethernet to work,
I'm going to attempt to get this guy up and running. Wish me luck :-)
 
Thanks for your help,
Shawn
