Here's my first install attempt for 2.1.6-RELEASE (am I the only person to try hard-wired SL/IP installs?) If you go through the network panel, setting everything as appropriate, even the "gateway" box; the executed ifconfig will fail because it only specifies one IP address on the ifconfig line... for me, I got the following on my debug screen: DEBUG: Executing command `slattach -a -h -l -s 19200 /dev/cuaa0` /var/run/slattach.cuaa0.pid DEBUG: Command `slattach -a -h -l -s 19200 /dev/cuaa0' returns status of 0 DEBUG: Notify: Configuring network device sl0. Dec 1 15:32:48 slattach[38]: sl0 connected to /dev/cuaa0 at 19200 baud DEBUG: Executing command `ifconfig sl0 inet 10.0.0.16 netmask 255.255.255.0' ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): Destination address required DEBUG: Command `ifconfig sl0 inet 10.0.0.16 netmask 255.255.255.0' returns status of 1 DEBUG: Switching back to VTY1 I'm guessing that adding the needed address in the "extra ifconfig options" box will solve this problem; just thought someone should know about it. - Dave Rivers -
