atv-bootloader assumes DHCP #2

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
atv-bootloader automatically tried to configure ethernet using DHCP. This can 
lead to long timeouts 
if a DHCP server is not present. This feature was enabled incase telnet (not 
running yet) access was 
desired instead of using direct access. Obviously if one is using 
atv-bootloader to chain-boot an 
other linux system, network access is not required and should be disabled.

One can fix this by extracting the initrd.gz image and editing etc/init.d/rcS. 
Comment out the 
ethernet setup near the bottom of the script.

This will be fixed in the next svn commit.

fixed in recovery-0.5.tar.gz. network services are disable for the current 
time. They are not required for Linux 
boot anyway.
