Hi, I am a total newbie with Moblin.

Please excuse me if I am in the wrong forum.

My machine is an mITX Intel D945GCLF2 + 2GB RAM + laptop ATA disk drive.

I load moblin-2.1-preview-20091008-001.img using win32diskimager-RELEASE-0.2-r23-win32 onto a 2GB Flash stick without any problem.

I can boot into the USB Flash stick with no problem.

But then I am totally unable to figure out how to tell Moblin that my mITX has a static IP address of 10.0.0.2. I have tried everything and the bar at the bottom of the network management window is grayed out and I can not activate it.
-----------------------------------
second problem: installing moblin onto the hard disk. Moblin seems to only want to install onto a Primary partition (unlike my other Linux experience). I don't want to blow away Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha 6 which is my first partition. Second partition is 4GB swap. How do I install moblin without screwing up grub or my first disk partition?

I fired up a CDROM or partedmagic and gparted and created various extended partitions and Moblin will not recognize them at install time.
-----------------------------------
any suggestions welcomed,
thank you for your patience with a newbie,
Ken - Chicago, IL USA
