Base system was installed from CD, problems with lilo for root-on-lvm-on-raid were manually resolved, and system was rebooted. After reboot installation continued and I realise then there is no network. I had to press Alt-F2, enter to the system, then run ifdown eth0 editor /etc/network/interfaces ifup eth1 /etc/network/interfaces was statically configured when DHCP failed, so I only had to replace eth0 to eth1 in both places in that file. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
