That's nothing I've seen before. It looks like the "Managed PC" stuff
sees the NIC fine. I'd guess that it would add it to its config and it
should work after reboot. Apparently that's not happening. Is there any
opportunity to enter into a config section before the reboot message?
Anyone else out there familiar with this at all?
