Network card problem
After having done a harddisk install of Knoppix 3.6 I find that the system gets confused over my network card. I think it is due to the fact that I have a Firewire card in which it thinks is also a network card. Hence instead of justing staring eth0 it also starts eth1. The interesting thing is that they are not always asigned to the same card...
Hence I have to do a:
ifconfig -a
to find out where the ethernet card really is, then do a:
ifdown eth0 eth1
to stop both, and then do a:
ifup eth0 or eth1 depending on where the ethernet really is...
Strange. How can I prevent this from happening? For your information I include the results of ifconfig -a:
