Well, make sure you know if you are using DHCP or not. If not, then there
is no need to specify your IP address. The only thing you would need to
specify is your DNS server and (maybe) your default gateway. I don't think
you'd need to specify your subnet mask.
If you are using DHCP, installation should be painless...
The other thing, is make sure your driver is correctly installed for your
network card, and that your card is working properly.

Subject: Re: Configure @Home with Linux
Thank you all for the reply. I am in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. What
actually
I did was to configure network from GNOME control panel -> network
configuration. There I opened interfaces and for eth0 I gave my ip address,
proto - dhcp, atboot -yes, inactive. For routing I gave interface - eth0,
netmask and gateway. There is one more field "Network" I don't know what to
write there.
While booting at "Bringing up interface eth0" the system fails. Does this
mean I
haven't configured my network card?
Thanks for any help.
