RE: Network Unreachable in Linux 7.0 - Very Urgent

hi genesh!

can only give some hints, because you post no facts - and there are some:

look in /var/log/dmesg to see, if network card was successfully identified.
do at startup time the mashine says "Bringing up eth0 ... [OK]"?
do you have set the route (say "route -n" which could result eg. in:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
172.16.2.0      0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         172.16.2.1      0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
)
did you control kernel settings. known network cards?
whats with your ifconfig ?

maybe that helps ... good luck anyway.

Subject: Network Unreachable in Linux 7.0 - Very Urgent


Hi,
Am Ganesh from mascon global, Mexico.
My task is to Install Linux 7.0 and Install Oracle 8.1.7 on the Linux.
here,Actually, i've installed Linux 7.0 (Intel Version) in a stand alone
machine. but at the time installing, I didnt get the screen where i've to
set the Host Name, IP Address info etc.... infact the installation guide
says, if you dont have the network card in your system, you wont get the
above screen and it'll go to next screen which is, Region settings.... so,
it went the same way and the installation was also successful.
but after the installation, when i try to install oracle 8.1.7 on linux, it
says, the DISPLAY is not set properly and it's not identified etc......
again we set the DISPLAY in the .bash_profile and again we ran the
runInstaller of  oracle. but still, again we got the same error mesg...
and if i ping some IP address from the linux machine, it says, NETWORK
UNREACHABLE........ what's that? why it says like this? though we have
proper network card and connections etc...
Then, i went and search google site, oracle metalink site, and red-hat
site... but no use... then i got this web site and i've registered myself
properly and am posting this query.
It's a very very urgent and important problem for us... please kindly help
us in this regard like, where did i made the mistake? what exactly it
requires etc...
we've also checked our network card and other hardware settings too...
everythign is perfect and we are not able to Install it....
so, kindly let us know is there any Linux version problem or Linux
compatibility problem etc....
how do we proceed this?... we are waiting for ur reply....
Thanx a lot ,
Ganesh.
