Hi!

Today I installed grml 0.9 (two times) to HD with grm2hd.
If I boot with the CD the autoconf detects eth0 (e1000) and eth1
(ipw3945) from my T60 laptop.
After install on HD and reboot the system just recognize eth0.
After rmmod ipw3945 /modprobe ipw3945 (and for some test another
/etc/init.d/ipw3945d restart) I get a eth1 but with a dhclient eth1 I
can?t get a IP.

While booting from the live CD I just need to wait a few sec and retry
dhclient eth1 and the LED for the WLAN activity is enlighten and blinks.
With boot from HD it is most time dark, just a part of second enlightent.

Oh, I use grml-network with WPA supplicant options.

Anyone has a idea? Is ipw3945 buggy?

Yes, it is a clean install, an now the (hopeful) exact steps:
boot from CD:
boot with standard option
grml-network (enter correct SSID, standard options, WPA, enter correct
Key), wait, break fist dhclient
wait some sec
dhclient eth1
*ipw3945 is active, WLAN LED is active and I got net access*

HD install:
- -grml2hd
- -chroot, install grub
- -reboot
- -apt-get update, apt-get upgrade (NO grml, kenrel oder ipw3945 update!)
- -grml-network (same as with CD boot)
- -reboot
- - after boot no eth1 present
- - rmmod ipw3945
- - modprobe ipw3945
- - ifconfig - no eth1
- - ifconfig eth1 - eth1 shows up with correct MAC ID, no IP
- - dhclient eth1 - WLAN HD is dark, some flickering and NO IP..

MfG,
Lars Schimmer
