You need to have at least one valid DNS server listed in that file in
order for outside lookups to work. Two or three is even better.

A little oversight from me here. If you can't ping an IP address something
else is wrong. You don't need DNS for this, because you are not resolving
names in this case. Maybe
True...but if "nameserver 127.0.0.1" isn't included in that
resolv.conf file, lookups won't work. Also, even if it is included,
if the connection to the net isn't there, it won't work, either.
In other words, as long as you have a working DNS setup on 127.0.0.1,
and a connection to the net, it

Can you define, for us, your take on internal vs. external?
The reason I ask is that if the network portion of the IP address
(the first 2 or 3 octets) doesn't match any IP address assigned to
the gateway, you won't be able to ping it. Also, the netmask has to
match, as well.

Well, we're going to have to look more at your networking issues. If

Be CERTAIN that you do not change the partition naming of your current
partitions or you'll have a trashed system. If, for instance, you add a
partition BEFORE your current ones, all the labels will change. Add new
ones AFTER your current install. FWIW, IMHO, if you've never done this
