No NIC on Raspberry PI 3

Post by Boyd.ako » 2017/08/31 15:12:43

So, I'm using a Raspberry Pi 3 with CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-Minimal-1611-RaspberryPi3.img for the install.

The eth0 doesn't seem to be picking up on the DHCP. If I try to

Code: Select all

ifup etho0
I get
Error: Connection activation failed: No suitable device found for this connection.
/etc/udev/rules.d doesn't have the standard NIC rules file that I'm used to. There's only a ipoib rule file. /dev/net only has a
tun
file. I've tried to manually set a static IP via ifconfig and got a
IPV6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
error.

Any ideas?

On my C7, it's no longer called eth0, but I'm not running the version you are, nor on a PI. Mine is enp0s25. Perhaps this will help (or not) to discover it's name:

Code: Select all

ls /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts

Or run ip link sh
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

What you looking for exactly? the ifcfg-eth0 is there. The only other interface script is for loopback

loopback and eth0 show up. Eth0 is No carrier, broadcast, multicast, up with the static IP. Still can't reach anything. Also the lights on the network port isn't on or flashing or anything.

Eth0 is No carrier
No link - that's probably the problem.
