Thank you, Per Jessen, and others, for your suggestions. The link connection status is shown with 'ethtool', however that tool is not part of the Rescue session on the install DVD. The command 'ip addr show' has 'state DOWN' even with the nics cabled and connected to the network. Definitely getting closer to a solution.
Did you try "ip link show", as somebody sugested? I think it works on mine.

'ip link show' and 'ip addr show' have the same results as above. The nics show 'state DOWN' when they are connected to the network.
Try enabling them with 'ifup ethx' - that really should give you the cable-connected status in the 'ip addr' display. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (12.7°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
