Description of problem:
Using the latest mkinitrd, the PXE boot loader gets its IP address from DHCP
just fine, but once kernel is running and initrd is loaded, the nash script
init runs the command
network --device eth0 --bootproto dhcp
and we see error messages listed below under actual results
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6
This problem did not exist with vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2869.fc6 and the then
concurrent version of mkinitrd
How reproducible: always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a diskless booting system that loads kernel and initrd from a tftp
server using pxelinux
2. mkinitrd --with=nfs --fstab=<fstab showing NFS-mounted root FS>
3. put resulting initrd in tftp server's /tftpboot
4. boot
Actual results:
Bringing up eth0
waiting for link... 0 seconds
send_packet: Network is down
Expected results:
network interface comes up, root FS mounts over NFS
Additional info:
It seems like the command "network" in the nash script "init" in the initrd
must be a built-in nash command, because there is no separate "network"
executable in the initrd. So I would assign this as a bug to nash except that
nash is not listed as a component.
Please try the work-around described in bug# 225363 comment #4 to see if it will
fix your problem.
I have the same problem (on i686) with Realtek 8139. It looks like nash network
builtin do not bring interface up.
I've added "busybox ifconfig eth0 up" before nash network and it said "Link Up"
but the "nash network" put it back down. I've added "busybox msh" after it and
interface was down.
Simple "ifconfig eth0 up" "ifconfig eth0 10.1.1.1" worked and I was able to ping.
Querstions for rhladik:
You say you added "busybox ifconfig eth0 up". Was this something you had as
part of your nash script before seeing this bug, or something you did as part
of bug investigation? Also, I presume by the way you brought it up eventually
that you are not using DHCP but rather a simple static IP address.
If that is true, then the common thread between the behavior you are seeing
and mine is that the NIC already is up and has an address when you reach
"network ..." in the nash script.

Thanks, but we are not using selinux at all, so that workaround is unlikely to
help (and we can not apply it since we do not have selinux).

Short version :I've added the busybox as part of investigation. And I'm using
DHCP but for this one case I've used static IP.
Long version:
I'm testing boot from iSCSI root device, so I've forced the mkinitrd script to
create ramdisk with network and iSCSI support. As it was not working, I've tried
to localize the problem and I've added busybox with shell to initrd and let it
execute between the nash network command and iscsistart. I've found out, that
nash network is stating :
bringing up eth0
sending DHCP request on LPF/eth0/....
Unable to send packet: Network down!
but the interface is actualy down, so I issued "busybox ifconfig eth0 up ..."
and the network started to work. So I've type exit to continue boot process and
iscsistart mounted root successfully.
I've tried to add "busybox ifconfig static ip" before the "nash network", it
said interface is up (Something like: Link Up, 100Mbps, FullDuplex).
But nash network was again unable to send packet :-)
So I've added "ifconfig eth0 up static addr" to initrd and moved to testing
iSCSI again. (this took me quite a while and it was not primary task to do).
I'm using DHCP but for this simple case I've used static IP to not complicate it
with running dhcp client daemon from initrd,etc....
If iSCSI root will work enough I will return to this problem and will try to
solve it in more correct way.
This sounds exactly the same problem I am having.
In my case I have created an updated Fedora Core Distribution using the latest
2.6.19 kernel and have created an ISO boot CD to boot the system and then
install accross the network using an NFS mount.
In my case the installation fails when the Ethernet interface, an E1000, fails
to send packets during DHCP requests with teh same error messages as reported above.
In my case I have just changed the kernel package back to a 2.6.18 and all
worked fine, no changes to nash. Note that I have also booted the same 2.6.19
kernel using a PXE boot and used busybox to loat the E1000 module and bring up
the eth0 interface with ifconfig and had no problems.
So there is more to it than just the kernel. Seems like a nash/kernel
interaction problem ....
Just tried out stateless linux with the latest 2-6-19-1.2911.fc6 kernel and boot
fails as described. This is using the forcedeth network driver.
I note when successful with 2869 it outputs:
eth0: no link during initialization
eth0: link up
This is notable by its absence in the equivalent 2895 boot.
Just adding a 'me too' to this. However, we're not doing netboot of machines.
We're running into this exact issue using an updated install image using
kernel-2.6.20-1.2925.fc6 and nash-22.214.171.124.3-1 (and all other updates as of
03/22/2007) on x86_64. We're booting the kernel and initrd off cd (or usb flash
drive) and kickstarting off an NFS server and it cannot get a DHCP IP. Console
shows the same errors Alex reported. I also can confirm that the 'stock'
installer image works fine.
I can confirm, that the exact same nfsroot initrd works with 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.
However without changing anything except the kernel version to 2.6.20-1.2944.fc6
it breaks as described by the initial posting.
All works with no fuss with the current FC7 kernel (2.6.21-1.3228.fc7).
So does anybody solved that issue? Is there any workarounds?
There's the obvious upgrade (upgrade to F7). Not that nash works right even
with RHEL5. I've found --mtu 9000 fails to do anything useful, and I have to
inject busybox in there to get the job done.
The *real* solution, which I hope to see in the not so distant future, is to get
rid of nash altogether.

John, thank you very much for answering, but could you please provide me, how
exactly can I use busybox, what should I do? I can't upgrade to FC7 and I have
to use FC6 for a while. Thanks again.
Boris - One way I found to work around this was to install
kernel-2.6.20-1.2944.fc6 in Fedora 7 and then use the F7 mkinitrd command to
generate the initrd for the FC6 kernel. To accomplish this, I downloaded the
appropriate FC6 kernel RPM into F7, and then installed it manually with RPM. It
worked perfectly once I copied the resulting initrd to my TFTP server.
One thing to remember is to edit grub.conf after installing the FC6 kernel into
F7 so that your F7 installation doesn't try to actually boot the kenel.
Hope that helps.

The new rss feed for Midtown Lunch is:
I love burritos, and have often lamented about the fact that there is not a good one in Midtown (here, here, here and here). More than anything that comes from past experience, and experiences. I have had some truly great burritos over the years, that hold special places in my heart… the Carnitas Super Burrito at Anna's Taqueria (Boston), the Chicken Mole Burrito at Casa Diaz in Los Feliz (Los Angeles), the Baja Chicken Burrito at Baja Fresh (locations everywhere in the U.S. except Manahattan!), the Huarache I had two weeks ago at the Ballfields in Red Hook, and finally, the gigantor Carnitas Burrito at La Costena (Mountain View California)… it's what all carnitas burritos aspire to be.
Erasing all of those delicious burritos out of your mind, there is another category of Mexican food, or tex-mex, or whatever you want to call it that is a decent meal as long as you don't compare it to the top of the heap. For example, the Chicken Gordita Supreme at Taco Bell. A tasty concoction that is perfectly good, and with none of the "side effects" commonly associated with eating at a place like Taco Bell. It's a deliciously soft and squishy pita type tortilla, with plain grilled chicken, lettuce, tomato, cheese and sour cream on top. No fake ground beef, no weird refried beans that send you to the toilet 15 minutes later. I wouldn't call it "great Mexican food", but it's a decent meal if you have to eat fast food.
A few months ago I discovered the world of Midtown "Taco" Carts when I ate at the Sombrero topped cart on 50th btw. 6+7th. A world where nacho cheese reigns supreme, and ground beef and stewed chicken are your only two meat choices. Soft corn tortillas are nowhere to be found, replaced by those crunchy yellow things that I've only seen at Taco bell, and in Ortega boxes in the Supermarket. There are a lot of burritos and tacos I would choose above this type of place… but that doesn't take away from the fact that if you are into hard shell tacos, and ground beef and nacho cheese- than this kind of place is going to be perfectly satisfying.
Thanks to an email tip, I discovered another Taco Cart (sadly, with no sombrero) for eastsiders looking for a lunch of nacho cheese and ground beef… with a surprisingly decent "chicken burrito". Pics and the +/- after the jump….

A New Source of Funds for Nonprofits: Product Recommendations!
The Great Recession has hit nonprofits hard. The most recent Chronicle of Philanthropy survey found that donations to the nation's biggest charities dropped 11 % last year — resulting in billions of dollars in lost revenue.

Tivoli extends autonomic capabilities, ups ante for ISVs
IBM continues its on-demand push with announcements Wednesday of new Tivoli management software, including an autonomic monitoring engine, and will offer up the technology to ISVs.
Continuing an aggressive push to prove it's in the driver's seat when it comes to on-demand computing, IBM on Wednesday will announce new Tivoli management software, including autonomic monitoring technology. IBM will make the announcement at its DeveloperWorks Live conference in New Orleans.
These additional offerings clearly put IBM at the forefront of an industry push to provide users with computers that essentially monitor themselves, experts say. Hewlett-Packard Co. and Sun Microsystems Inc. have both recently announced on-demand initiatives, both of which include autonomic computing as one major component. Last month, Microsoft Corp. also joined the fray by disclosing its own autonomic plan, Dynamic Systems Initiative (DSI). DSI creates an architecture that is based on a set of code called the systems definition model (SDM), which essentially provides an XML blueprint for deploying and managing applications.
IBM's new products fall across all three areas of IBM Tivoli software – systems management, security and storage management – and are designed to reduce the complexity of integrated, heterogeneous environments, the company said. The new offerings also help ISVs extend intelligent management and autonomic capabilities to their customers.
At the center of the announcement is the Tivoli Autonomic Monitoring Engine, which captures, analyzes and correlates key metrics to automatically detect resource outages and potential problems before they impact system performance or end-user experience. The monitoring engine has embedded self-healing technology to allow systems to automatically recover from critical situations.
Probably the most important component of this announcement however, and an indicator of how aggressive IBM is in this push, say analysts, is that the Tivoli Autonomic Monitoring Engine allows ISVs to develop applications that deliver self-healing autonomic functionality out of the box. With support for any platform, IBM partners will be able to use the software now to link their products to IBM Tivoli Monitoring and to other autonomic IBM products later this year.
In addition, IBM will share the application programming interfaces (APIs) of the Tivoli Enterprise Data Warehouse, a repository of systems management data and best practices based on IBM's DB2 database software. This move allows ISVs to mine the data warehouse for tools that can be integrated into their applications.
The announcement is potentially quite important, because it's the combination of two major IBM initiatives," said Paul Mason, group vice president for infrastructure software at International Data Corp., the Framingham, Mass.-based research firm. "One initiative is autonomic computing," he said. "The other part is that IBM is aggressively attempting to take ISVs into the fold."
Mason said that IBM wants to position itself as a supplier of this important infrastructure that ISVs can build their products upon. If ISVs buy into this, the end user will benefit by not having to worry about support for several different infrastructure components.
As part of the overall Tivoli announcements, IBM will also be rolling out support in Tivoli Configuration Manager for two major application installation software vendors, Wise Solutions Inc. and InstallShield Software Corp. Together, the integrations automate the process of installing and distributing virtually any commercial application across an enterprise using Tivoli Configuration Manager.
Among other new products on tap from Big Blue are SRM Express, a desktop storage resource management (SRM) product, application support for WebSphere 5.0, Linux agents for SAN Manager and zLinux support for Tivoli Storage Manager. Tivoli will also support subsystem provisioning via the Bluefin specification and reporting capabilities at the file system level.

© 2020 Really Good Emails
The Jack Wills Cart Abandonment email uses dynamic and personalised content very well. The most obvious example of this is that the basket is populated using multiple images of the customer's products to reflect the product pages on the website, which is particularly engaging. It also uses logic to determine if they have hit the delivery threshold of £60, in which case the email displays the message 'Congratulations, you qualified for free delivery!'. If the customer does not qualify, the email will populate the remaining amount the customer needs to spend to qualify, e.g. 'Spend just £10.20 more to quality for free delivery!'.
The email also uses custom fonts with an appropriate fallback in compliant clients which helps enhance the template and match it to the brand.
