Why is it a crap shoot when trying to get an
installation to see stuff, especially the internet?

I just installed slak 10 twice and yes, it finds the
eth0 card, but fails to set it up!!

The following is a 'flappy' saved from knoppix and
slaking slak!!

Now, what do I do???? Probably simple, just don't know
what/where/when/how!! (all those good adjectives per
my high school english teacher...believe it or not,
yes, I did graduate!!))

knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ ifconfig
