| |
I am running 1.99.7 (a RedHat 3.0 box) and got the following odd error message when booting:
SIOCADDRT: Invalid argument
I tracked it down to the fact that the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-lo script tries to do a:
route add -net 127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1 is obviously not a network, yet somehow this has been working for months. Something must have changed in the recent code to make the kernel more sensitive to this. Changing the ifup-lo script to explicitly do:
route add -net 127.0.0.0
fixes the problem.
