To bring 'dummy' down, go into /etc/rc.config and change the line for 'dummy' so that during boot up 'dummy' is not even brought up. While you are at it, you may configure the settings for the ethernet card in the same file as well.

Hello,
I am new to SuSE. I installed SuSE on my machine and used YAST to configure the network. After I restarted the system, the "ifconfig" command, shows the loopback device and dummy device. It did not find the eth0 device. How do I get the system to find the eth0 device?
Thank you.

I suggest using YaST i.s.o of editing /etc/rc.config directly. Most of the system administration can be done using YaST. It takes a little while getting used to it. It also updates relevant config files. If you find suggestions for the tool then send email to feedback@suse.de.
