I went through the following steps again:
1) Boot the rescue system
2) drvinst
3) mount your root as /mnt
4) do a "mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
5) do a "chroot /mnt"
6) do a "mount -t proc none /proc"
7) do a "mount -t sysfs none /sys"
8) do "XFdrake"
9) choose the x11 VESA or VGA driver (way down at bottom of list)
except that this time I chose the Other:VESA (generic) driver. On
closing XFdrake I got
ioctl EVIOCGBIT failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Is this to be expected? Anyway, on reboot it was exactly the same as
before.
Starting afresh, I followed the steps up to running XFdrake (but not
running XFdrake yet). I tried 'ifup eth0' but 'Running in chroot.
Ignoring request'. After "exit" this changed to "Running in chroot.
ignoring request. ./network-functions: line 260: cd:
/var/run/netreport: No such file or directory.
Incidentally, how do you reboot or shutdown when in chroot - and/or
how do you reverse the chroot?
So - I'm back in console, without running any of the steps yet. Can
you give me the command to add the non-free source and tell me how to
get eth0 working?
Anne
