[SOLVED] rpcbind: cannot create socket for udp6 and tcp6

[Leonard]

Correct. I am using TFTP. Switching off the DHCP server (and the PXE boot option in the BIOS) didn't help.

Don't disable the DHCP server, but remove the TFTP option in the DHCP setup.

Is there a way to force a specific IP address as a boot parameter?

Don't think you can do that. But you can boot that run level 1, and perhaps manually set the IP address, and then resume booting (init 5). to try this, press 'e' at the boot menu, and add 1 to the linux boot commandline. and try it from there.

Not sure what issue this is TBH as I don't get this in my setup. Do you have another USB stick and try?

On my router I notice that the computer is transmitting packages but itdoesn't receive anything.

Can you ping the snakeoil from the router (or another computer on the same network?) If yes, can your SSH or VNC in?

No I was not able to ping it, nor SSH or VNC. The netwerkadapter seemed to be working fine (based on the blinking LED's) but the computer didn't show up in my netwerk environmen. I got the same error messages when I disconnect the netwerkcable, so I guess it is not directly related to my TFTP or DHCP servers.

However I finaly got it working now by installing the previous version of the ISO fille (version 1.3). After that, and setting a fixed IP, I was able to upgrade to the latest firmware and kernel versions. Took me 2 days. I guess the issue must be related to the 1.4 version of the ISO not able to receive an IP address.
