Or try as root:
bash>ifconfig eth0 up bash>ifconfig
Yast2 should be able to setup the init scripts for you if you setup your network base configuration.
What type of network is this attempting to connect to? If it is attempting to dhcp and it doesn't find a IP, it may not bring the interface up. You can specify a static IP to get around that.
->The card is an EEpro100+ and is correctly detected. I've tried the ->eepro driver as well as the e100 driver. /sbin/ifconfig eth0 still ->says I've got no interface.
Apparently this is the DHCP problem that others have seen. If I install 8.0 on this box, everything is fine. When I get back from my trip, I'll install 8.1 with a static address. Then I can get the DHCP update and all should be well. Thanks for the hints everyone! -- JAY VOLLMER JVOLLMER@VISI.COM TEXT REFS DOUBLEPLUSUNGOOD SELFTHINK VERGING CRIMETHINK IGNORE FULLWISE
