Can : you tell me how to turn the logging on for the dhcpcd? This way I can : try and get a better handle on where the failure occurs and ask more : informed questions. Use the "-d" flag for debug. This should throw out copious amounts of information. In addition to "-d" you may want to use the "-T" flag for test mode. It'll show you what's supposed to happen, but won't actually change anything (not like it matters right now, but for future edification). : Was there supposed to be a dhclient file in the /sbin directory, or was : it removed and the OFF_inet.dhcp_eth0 file was not updated?? What version are you running. I just looked at both the i686-exclusive and x86-build cds that I have and OFF_inet.dhcp_eth0 used dhcpcd. Hey quick question. Did you set the network up before you did the chroot? --Jerry name: Jerry Alexandratos || Open-Source software isn't a phone: 703.599.6023 || matter of life or death... email: jerry@thehutt.org || ...It's much more important || than that!
