I am not sure what happened here:
I messed up my /etc/sysconfig file, so I imported another one.
The original was in 2.1, while the imported one came from the previous
2.1-SNAP.
Another difference that is probably important is that one machine was
installed using a NE2000 card and the other using a 3COM ethernet card.
The problem is in:
# route_multicast="224.0.0.0 -netmask 0xf0000000 -interface ${hostname}"
# route_loopback="${hostname} localhost"
If I uncomment this line in sysconfig, the system will not boot.
(attaching a monitor/keyboard to the pc will allowed me to continue the
boot process by typing <ctrl>-C, but no multicast nor loopback oute will
exist.
Typing 'route add loopback system localhost' would just hang the system
until I <ctrl>-C it. Same will hapend with similar line for multicast.
How do I fix this ?
