I recently decided to get DHCP working on my T7200s (booting from
dev-environment on CF card). Just thought I'd share my newbiness if
someone else has similar problems.
-First, was dismayed that simply changing the /etc/network/interfaces
file was insufficient.
-Decided to upgrade CF card to the 'woody' distribution as I hadn't
upgraded in a while:
ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-linux-cd/distributions/debian-woody-256MB-10-27-2005.tar.bz2
-On bootup, realized kernel (ts6) was mismatched with root environment
on CF card (ts9) when I saw console errors:
Modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/xxx/modules.dep
(No such file or directory)
-Slapped forehead, realizing the kernel is not distributed as part of
the CF root, but is flashed seperately to the TS7200 via RedBoot.
-Downloaded new DevCD from Technologic:
http://www.embeddedarm.com/downloads/arm_sbc/tsarmlinuxcd-05-20-2006.tar
-In RedBoot on TS7200, received 'unrecognized image type' when
attempting the "load -b 0x00218000 -h 192.168.1.100 vmlinux" ... the
same load command with -r worked fine.
-rebooted, configured for DHCP, still no DHCP requests in ethereal,
etc. Searched here, found advice about adding 'af_packet' to
/etc/modules file --> everything working fine, now.
