me23 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Ok, so I decided I want to move past WHS and use Unraid for my 1000+ movies and tv shows. I've been lurking for awhile and researching and got a pretty good build. I'm using x9scm-f, downloaded the rc10 release. Formatted lexar firefly 8 GB stick and copied the rc10 contents to it. Booted up, looks good. Did ifconfig and no ip address. So its not seeing the network. I went into network.cfg and gave it a static ip,etc. entered that in browser but still not accessible. Also tried //Tower, nothing. I can see a contents list of the usb stick and so I know its mounted. Next going to wipe stick again and do over. Any other suggestions. Im eager to get this going and buy the pro license, so any help is appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Try the other ethernet port. Quote Link to comment
me23 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'll try that when I get home. However, I did try the stick on my win7 computer with same result, so I don't think its the port. Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 What is the output of? ethtool eth0 ifconfig eth0 Quote Link to comment
me23 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Try the other ethernet port. Well as simple as that sounds that worked. Strange. Thanks Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 It isn't that strange.... unRAID only configures the first port (eth0). Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 It isn't that strange.... unRAID only configures the first port (eth0). Not strange at all. The first port unraid detects on this particular board happens to be the second port. Unraid stops trying after the first port it finds, not that it always is the listed number 1 port on the board.
