what do you get when you run /sbin/ifconfig -a?
Perhaps the new network card requires a different driver for your
kernel...
And if you are not familiar with the process of building/loading new
modules for the kernel, I am not sure if there is an *easy* way to do
this, except for letting the installer run and guessing what modules you
need....

Thanks, Brad. The result of '/sbin/ifconfig -a' follows:
# /sbin/ifconfig -a

This is good...it shows your device it up and looks to be *working* as
it has transmitted and received packets...
Questions:
Do you have more then 1 Ethernet device in your system?
Do the network settings listed look accurate?
Can you ping any internal machines, like your gateway (192.168.1.1)
Can you ping external machines?
