Amahi Forums

Howdy,

Out of the blue my Amahi system is not talking on the network. When starting up it gives an alert on a kernel crash - "warning at net/sched sch_generic.c:258 dev_watchdog" message.

I'm not much of a Linux wizard - can anyone point me in the right direction? Since the NIC isn't working I assume it's related to the NIC driver - am I able to somehow reinstall the driver? Or how might I move forward to diagnose the issue?

Much appreciated,
Rhys

Hard to tell without a lot of details, but it looks hardware related.

If you end up changing your NIC, the MAC may change and you may need to tweak some system details.

Check the page on binding [wiki]Binding Network Devices[/wiki] wiki page for details.

Has a clean Ubuntu install network connection? Whats about the dmesg?

Looks like my system hard drive was flaking out. I managed to repair the NIC but it totally died shortly afterwards. So ended up getting a new hard drive (or a new old one, haha) and rebuilding.

Pretty sure I've at least got another dead storage drive and possibly a smeg'd motherboard. Not cool.

Thanks for the tips tho.
