I installed the c't (3.4) Version of Knoppix. I configured the network card (PCMCIA) and network was working perfect. But after a reboot the network configuration is gone. I always have to run:
/etc/init.d/networking stop
/etc/init.d/networking start

to get it working. Is there a way to get this working whitout having to do this every time i start my computer?

Thx a lot

I have the same problem. The problem seems to be that the network tries to connect before the network card is initialized with cardmgr. But I'm not sure how to fix this.

I solved it in a way. I made a new init-script (renet). In it i stop and start networking. then i link this init script to rc5 S99renet.

the script looks like:
/etc/init.d/networking stop
/etc/init.d/networking start

i know it's not really nice. but it works :)

In my case, I make sure the modules for the network card aren't listed in /etc/modules and let cardmgr find and load it when it boots up. If you set the module to load before cardmgr has a chance to initialize, there could be problems. I didn't need a script to fix that problem.
