Good afternoon,
due the problem to get in your bug tracking system:
Connection refused - "connect(2)" (Errno::ECONNREFUSED)
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/drb/drb.rb:291:in `open'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/drb/drb.rb:291:in `initialize'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/drb/drb.rb:271:in `new'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/drb/drb.rb:271:in `open'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/drb/drb.rb:225:in `method_missing'
/home/okuji/www/htdocs/index.cgi:87
I decided to write a mail.
Because my BIOS doesn't support booting from networking and I have the
completely configured TFTP/DHCP/NFS server for PXE clients, I decided to
solve this situation by adding to my GRUB menu.lst (on my local disk):
title 2.4.20-network
dhcp
root (nd)
kernel (nd)/boot/kernel-2.4.20 root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=192.168.16.5:/u4/OS/debian-woody/ ip=dhcp
GRUB (stage1 + stage2) was compiled with options:
./configure --enable-eepro100 (also --enable--epro) --enable-diskless
During dhcp command GRUB detect my eepro100 ethernet a writes:
Probing ...........
and freezed. When I pressed ctrl+break grub wrote 'disk write error'.
I tried also replace dhcp command to
'ifconfig --address=192.168.17.59 --mask=255.255.255.0
--gateway=192.168.17.1 --server=192.168.16.5'
But no success. Ethernet still doesn't work (when I booted linux OS, I
have no problem to obtain my IP address (+netmask, +next-server,
+gateway) from dhcp-server). I have a configured DHCP server, which
gives IP addresses according MAC address. As tftp server I use the
latest tftpd-hpa 0.34 (and have no problem with getting/putting tftp files)
I tried to sniff a network traffic during booting my 2.4.20-network GRUB
configuration, but I didn't detect any UDP DHCP
broadcasts/request/offer/discover packets.
I guess, eepro-100 with grub didn't work.
I also tried to place GRUB image to floppy disk, but the same effect.
Thanks for fix or advice,
Pavol
