Re: Strange behaviour with boottime loading of ipw2200

Hi.

I started the thread. Someone responded that setting HWADDR
in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 might make the problem
disappear. 

And it did! After setting HWADDR with the MAC for the wireless card, the
problem has not been encountered since.

I guess it still is a problem, but it works. Not very nice for mom and
pops at home trying out a user-friendly linux distro though.

Greets,


Rubin.
