machine with 2 ethernet cards e1000 and forcedeth
I am using centos 5 x86_64 AMD64 X2 4200+. I am current on yum update.
My machine has two ethernet cards. e1000 (eth0) and forcedeth (eth1)
[root at fsdsigns2 ~]# more /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 e1000
alias eth1 forcedeth
sometimes on boot the forcedeth driver thinks it is eth0:
[root at fsdsigns2 ~]# dmesg | grep eth
forcedeth.c: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver. Version 0.60.

network config files in centos 5 changing
What is happening in centos 5 with network config files???
I have a machine with 2 network cards.
ifcfg-eth1 keeps changing to DHCP. All my static setup is gone.
Why is it doing this? How can I stop it?
I run "netconfig -d eth1" and re-setup my static information. I reboot and
now I am back to DHCP.
I have a gigabyte motherboard, nvidia chipset. forcedeth driver. eth0 is
e1000.

future modprobe.conf
centos 5 had modprobe.conf entries for eth0 and if present eth1.
something like:
alias eth0 forcedeth
alias eth1 e1000e
For the new centos 6 (I have the rhel 6 client installed on my laptop)
the modprobe.conf file is gone. Which is fine. I understand files can be
created in /etc/modprobe.d and server the same purpose.
My question is I dont see (doing a grep) any eth0 alias's in the files

question on modprobe.conf
I download the RHEL 6b2 and noticed the modprobe.conf
was no longer present.
I used modprobe.conf to place "options" for ethernet drivers
like which order to install the drivers. e1000e before forcedeth -
things like that.
Anyway - seems like that file is no longer present.
what is the "future" way to handle driver options?
Thanks

Network Name issue
Hi,
I've installed CentOS 5 on a Dell pe1950 with 2 dual port NICS.
One of the NIC is an Intel and use the e1000 module.
The problem is when the server is rebooted it does no asign the ethx name to the NICs, instead the so assign something like _dev377362...
so i dont have networking on the server.
Any ideas what is happening and how to solve it?
Thanks.

centos 5 is reporting invalid mac address
I have not see this before...
Installing centos 5 on m2n-mx motherboard the onboard forcedeth
driver loads and says invalid mac address "97:42:40:F3:18:00"
Anyone else ever seen this before? Is it fixable? I went to support.asus.com
and searched for "invalid mac address" they say sorry no data.

setting up 3 network cards
I am attempting to put 3 network cards in one box, running centos 64 5.4
network cards are forcedeth (motherboard), e1000e and r8169.
I have ifcfg-eth0, ifcfg-eth1 and ifcfg-eth2 all configured up.
All looks fine.
eth0 is my internal network (forcedeth)
eth1 is Cable modem
eth2 is T1 data
Once I connect the three networks and try to ping something all I can
ping is internal network machines.

again, nic driver order
I have two servers with identical hardware ... TYAN i3210w system
boards with dual intel gigabit interfaces, and a PCI intel gigabit
nic. I'm running Centos 5.4, x86_64, 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5
Every other time I reboot, the nics initialize in a different order.
anaconda had setup /etc/modprobe.conf with alias lines for the cards:
alias eth0 e1000
alias eth1 e1000e
alias eth2 e1000e

Release 4.4 and MPC51 ethernet controller
When using 4.4 to install on gigabyte GA-M51GM-S2 motherboard
basically an Nforce 410/430 chipset then network is not initially detect to
perform a network install. It let me attempt to manually select a driver
but I
do not see the driver in the list.
After installing the network works and the forcedeth driver is loaded.
Is there a way to get this driver detected or manually loaded?
THanks,

Lan Kernel Problem
I'm building a Linux box to act as Proxy/Router/Firewall.
I'm using CentOS 4.5, with an "old" motherboard (Asus A8V-X), and two
Ethernet NIC, based on a realtek chip, that's widely supported under
2.4 and later kernel (the cards were functioning excellent in another
PC whit Fedora Core 1).
CentOS detects the on board LAN, but not the other two, in fact,

my centos switched alone its root fs to read-only
My test server was in very eavy load, running kolab's components:
postfix, cyrus-imap and openldap
A second test machine was sending, and reading emails as fast as it can.
The CPU was never idle !
I left the server at about 17H30
and at 22H I find it "uncommitted" (difficult to work when the
partition in read-only !)
However the mount command report it as RW !
The /boot is still RW

wich filesystem to store > 250E6 small files in same or hashed dire
Hi
I need to store about 250.000.000 files. Files are less than 4k.
On a ext4 (fedora 14) the system crawl at 10.000.000 in the same directory.
I tried to create hash directories, two level of 4096 dir = 16.000.000
but I had to stop the script to create these dir after hours
and "rm -rf" would have taken days ! mkfs was my friend
I tried two levels, first of 4096 dir, second of 64

Cannot boot after upgrading to Centos 5.1
My local centos mirror (ftp.crc.dk) failed to boot
after having upgraded from centos 5.0 to 5.1 (i386).
It just displays
GRUB
The cursor is positioned to the right of a space after
GRUB, and no input is accepted.
I've tried booting in rescue mode and run:
chroot /mnt/sysimage
grub-install /dev/cciss/c0d0
This completes without errors, but still it can't boot.
It's a HP/Compaq

find /etc -size -1G return only empty files
Hello
find /etc -size -1G
should return all files less than 1Giga byte in /etc, but return a
list of empty file (size=0)
find /etc -size -2G
work fine and return all the files
This works the same on my fedora11 and my centos 5 !
Did I miss something or is it a bug ?

Controller detection order
Hi,
I have a dell poweredge 850 with centos 4, freshly installed. I'm now
trying to add in a fibre -> sata raid enclosure with LSI HBA's in the
850.
My problem is the enclosure gets detected first, hijacking sda and
sdb from the internal SATA drive and causing kernel panic at boot
time. I've tried changing the order in modprobe to the following:
alias eth0 tg3
alias eth1

Dual boot box: WinXP & CentOS 5: Impossible to restore WinXP?
We rarely use M$ Windows, but I let my daughter surf pbskids.org while
using Windows and a Trojan Horse modified or deleted the user32.dll
file. I found the instructions on the Microsoft Support web site, and
it would be very easy for me to expand a new copy of user32.dll if I
could get the MS WinXP CD to work. It boots OK, I press a key so it
will search hardware and it then has hard drive

Taking file from pyhsical disk to new virtual disk
Hi
I am playing with virtualization on centos 5.
I have an old redhat 7 system I still need so I want to virtualize it.
I found the old disk, installed in the virtual environment but found
I had done some additions WAY back.
I want to be sure my virtual system is exactly the same as the ACTUAL
system.
Do I use cpio on the actual system to grab everything and then put that

command to show virtual X screens

Is there a command line command that controls which virtual X screen
a person is viewing?
Sure I can click on one of the 4 virtual X screens but can I control that

nForce 630i Chipset, unable to get integrated nic working
Hello everyone,
I've also posted this onto the Network support forums but figured I'd shoot
it to the mailing list as well.
I recently purchased a ECS GF7100PVT-M motherboard and now I'm wishing I'd
investigated driver support a little better before I did! I was able to get
Centos 5.1 XEN Kernel installed but have been having a helluva time getting
the on board NIC going. The MB
