Re: debian install help please

Hi

As far as I know, autoconfigure needs a DHCP-Server in your network. That
means, an other computer has to supply you with an IP-Adress and other
config-information.

If no such server is present, you have to set the IP-Adress and Gateway
manually.

Hope, that helps!
Yours, Rudolf
