Setup Problems

Hi

I've just tried installing a second time but keep having the same problem. I boot up off the SD card but The LAN never starts up so cant do anything. Plugging in a tv shows it booted up fine in every other way. Running the commands with a plugged in keyboard get me set up ok, but the SSH server never starts meaning I can't do any subsequent configuration without plugging in a TV and keyboard.

Revision 1 Pi, 256Mb, Netgear WN111v2 (works fine after config) wifi pen.

Hi,
did you connect the RPi to your home router or to a normal computer with the wired ethernet?

Matthias

The current connection is Pi->WRT54GS (in repeater mode)->Virgin Media Router/Hub.

so you connected the RPi via wired ethernet to your WRT54GS?
Do other devices work directly with this setup?

Sorry for the delay in replying. Yes it's wired to the WRT54GS and the TV / Rasbmc PI box / PS3 all work fine wired.

did you change something in the configuration?
Can you reach other services on the box, like http ?

This is only my signature.

Nothing has been changed. I wrote the image to the card and booted. Once booted I enabled and started the Piratebox service (using a tv, as LAN doesn't start up) which then made the wifi AP visible and I can access the Http server and up/download as normal but nothing else.

I'll do some more investigation when I get a free moment (I'm fairly competent with Linux).
