Hi there,

I tried the CD-version 0.5.9.2 and say 3 of 4 tries Quantian booted
into KDE without bringing the eth0 up and openMosix not active.

I don't have a DHCP server in my home network, just a floppyfw
router&firewall.

When I got lucky, Quantian boots with eth0 up and an IP address
assigned (say, 192.168.0.250 or 192.168.0.77 or some other ARBITRARY IP
address). Then I choose "Start openMosix Terminal Server" from the
relevant menu and behold I am able to join another of my home PCs to
the cluster using EtherBoot.

Why this happens occasionaly? Where is the problem? Is there any
particular pre-boot configuration I can use so EVERY TIME I'm booting
Quantian, I get openMosix up and running?

Thank you,
