No luck so far.

On bootup, I saw the following:

"Setting up network interfaces

eth0  (DHCP)  .....................................  no IP address yet
.......... backgrounding
eth1  (DHCP)  .....................................  no IP address yet
.......... backgrounding"

I ran /sbin/ifconfig and got this:

eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr  00:E0:18:A0:32:13
        inet6 addr:  fe80::2e0:18ff:fea0: 3213/64  Scope:link
        UP   BROADCAST    NOTRAILERS   RUNNING   MULTICAST   MTU:1500
Metric:1
        Rx packets:207  errors:0  dropped:0  overruns:0  frame:0
        Tx packets:10    errors:0   dropped:0   overruns:0   carrier:0
        collisions:0   txqueueLen:100
        Rx bytes: 14279  (13.9 Kb)    Tx bytes: 2820 (2.7 Kb)
        Interrupt:9  Base address:  0xb000

Then I ran ifstatus eth0 and got:

"dhcpcd running
eth0 not up"

I would appreciate any suggestions for what to do next...

Thanks,

Tony
