Just a quick question. I have linux going on an embedded MPC860. The application that is running on it uses sockets but when I disable bootp all the socket calls fail since the network has not been configured properly.
I have only been able to do this by using 'ifconfig'. I don't know the details, but simply setting the IP address like this doesn't seem to invoke some initialization functions. Using ifconfig after the system boots works just fine. -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
