/dev/hdc depending on how you're set up. check those. they should be
root:cdrom. Also, what mechanism are you using for mounting these
disks? You may have to monk

If it wasn't for a little attitude we wouldn't get along so well.

Ok I added the following line in my /etc/network/interfaces file
auto eth0
...
...
up ifconfig mtu 1450
after doing a ifdown -a and ifup -a I could verify the mtu by ifconfig
-a.
I tried 1450, 1400, 1300, 1200, .700. None of which seemed to
help.
how do I check on the ipv6 packet?
