Hi all,

I've just installed linux on my work machine, and having trouble on
connecting to the network. At the boot up time, one of the line says :

SIOCADDRT : Network is unreachable

It runs smoothly except this little hitch. I have no trouble otherwise. It
seems that it's recognizing the network card also. I configured the
network software using "netconfig" script.

Well the machine does connect to the uni network under DOS/Windoze and
works happily, so I think there is no problem on hardware part (well I
hope). I've re-installed linux couple of times and recompiled kernel but
still no good.

My network card is a SMC EtherEZ PnP (with PnP disabled), and my kernel is
1.2.13.

Any help/suggestions etc appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Crying in desperation,

Makoto
