    I have a working Debian machine in which I replaced the HD with a new HD
    and loaded a copy of RH Enterprise WS 3 academic (that I just purchased from
    RH for $25).

    Everything went well during the install (I used downloaded ISO's that I
    checksummed) until it got the "bringing up interface eth0". I had forgotten
    to plug in the ethernet cable from my cablemodem/router (DHCP) so it failed.

    I thought: no problem, shutdown, pulled the NIC , rebooted, used Kudzu to
    remove the NIC, shutdown again, reinstalled the NIC, Kudzu found the NIC but
    still encountered the long pause and failure at "bringing up interface
    eth0".

    I've, tried removing and reinstalling the NIC several times since and
    tested the NIC on another machine to re-confirm that it works and it does.
    So it seems it's a RH problem.

    Not sure if my initial failure to plug the CAT5 cable in initially, affected
    things but I can't see why it would in the long run.

    If anyone knows what the problem is or how I can fix it, I would very much
    appreciate the help. I'm stumped.

    No RH phone support with my academic license and I am a RH newbie...
