Just to get closure: We hade it in repair, exchanged the motherboard and now it works (David, please confirm that it still is OK)? Could have been bad connection on the ethernet for instance, difficult to know. Actually no. it does not... Sorry for not getting back sooner. As said I got it replaced...

No, I didn't. I have researched a little but can't figure out how to do this. If you know how from the top of your head I'm willing to try, otherwise I'll send it to Excito.

Thanks.

Ok, did that and it disn't work... Still no contact.

Redownloaded the rescue system and verified it against the sha256 hash, formatted a new stick and moved the rescue system there.

Reinstalled on my spare hdd, wiping everything, format and partition.

Same state as before, can not reach b3 at all.

Ok, I dug out an old spare harddrive and connected the b3 to it, made a complete reinstallation with format and partition. b3 starts up and light turns blue. And: nothing. Nothing at all. b3 doesn't get an IP and if I plug a client into the LAN port it doesn't even notice there is a connection. So t...

...boot the rescue system and put a hashtag in front of /dev/mapper/bubba-storage in fstab on /dev/sda1. Maybe also recreate swap on /dev/sda3. There may be an issue with mount-all and that would most definitely keep the system from starting the basic required services network and sshd. Tried this ...

Thank you both for your help and patience.

I'll try #tagging mounts monday morning.

Thanks. the b3 doesn't get an IP doing that. It does hovever get one if I plug in a rescue system usb stick (http://wiki.excito.org/wiki/index.php/Rescue_System) and reboot into that. I ssh into the rescue system. I mount /dev/sda1 at /mnt I very carefully selected not to format or partition when I ...

No, they're not. Only one machine in the hub gets an ip.

The checkpoint list is a very good suggestion actually, but unfortunately we have none. What I'm interested in is how your external internet is connected to your B3. What I think is that you have a UTP cable coming out of a wall that you stick directly into the WAN port of the B3, and you either ge...

...So essentially all you need to do is boot the machine without any network cable attached to it and then plug a single PC straight to the LAN port. At that point you may or may not receive an IP address, based on whether the B3 started the DHCP server or not, and of course if you don't you'll nee...

You are being very cryptic. You think so? Sorry for that. I'll clarify. * You can reach the B3 but you claim the network is down. Unless you soldered a serial interface to the B3, this is impossible. Yes. Can not reach from LAN, b3 is seen in network manager, but I can not connect. Is not given any...

I no longer get IPs from my B3. The connections, both wired and wireless is seen but I never get any IP from it. The icon in my network manager just spins trying to connect. It suddenly stopped working after I mounted the b3s shares on a new workstation installation. The fstab is the same I use on a...

As so often I figure it out just after posting a question...
For some reason I had changed the permission on /home/user to 777. Changing it back to 755 solved the issue. now authorized_keys are working again.

I can no longer login to my b3 without password using authorize_keys. It did work up 'til yesterday when I added another machine with ssh-copy-id user@b3server. Now no machine can connect without being promted with a password. I tried deleting the key copied from the new machine, checked rights on /...

Still no printer with an upgrade to 2.5.0.1...
