Hi,

you should take a look at '/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf'. This is where the
network configuration is stored with Slackware 9.1.

Subject: [driverloader] Need help configuring


I have Driverloader properly configured (although I received the tainted
module warning).



However, my Kernel's attempt at configuring the device fails. First of
all it treats it as eth0. When I start Linux, any settings I specify in
iwconfig don't save upon reboot. It get my network working, I have to
issue iwconfig eth0 essid myessid. Then I have to run ifconfig to verify
it is now listed as eth0 there. Then I have to run dhcpcd.

How am I supposed to configure all of these things to happen during
boot??

I'm a total newbie running Slackware 9.1, Kernel 2.4.22. Any info would
rock. I have a Dell Inspiron 8000.


Thanks!!
