And the same installation? So as far as the system is concerned, you have changed the network card (on-board cards appear as PCI devices). > Somehow, the OS(udev?) still thinks it's using the old > ethernet plus the new one...guessing here. No, it thinks you have changed the card, and eth0 was allocated to the old card. > Hopefully that's the fix. Should know next boot.

Yes, but then udev sees that eth0 is already allocated to another card so makes this one eth1. Just delete the file as mentioned previously to have udev forget about the old card and start again with eth0. -- Neil Bothwick Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.
