|
|
-- the "network information" section of my profile only has netmask/gw info
-- my linode has no "eth0" device
-- rebooting the linode doesnt' help
-- executing any of the ifconfig or /etc/init.d/network* commands fail since there is no eth0
-- /proc/modules is non-existant
please help |

| Chris I have been doing alot of reboots through out the day and nothing worked. It is very strange that you now did a reboot and it found the eth0 (networkcard) do you think that it could have been something else ? |

| It's my understanding you should always reboot from the web. |

You can reboot via the web (Linode Platform Manager) or via the Linode Shell on the virtual console - just issue the reboot command at the lish prompt.
Issuing a reboot command from within your Linode is not supported and will just shut the Linode down. |

For those of you who are lazy, if you setup the following aliase you can reboot from within your linode
alias reboot='ssh account_name@hostxx.linode.com reboot'
you will just need to enter your password, or for a seemless reboot set-up ssh keys.
