Thanks for all the help.
By the way I did install centos 5.5 in text mode and everything went fine .cthe server to the network and then found that i was not able to ping the gateway
when i do a network restart i see that eth0 comes up normally
also when i do a modprobe eth0 im returened back to prompt with no errors
the switch port shows the link up
ifconfig shows the interface is up and running
how could I know that the driver is installed correctly .. or any way i could know that my interface is up and working correctly
thanks and regards
if you need more details i would highly apprecite if you could ask please
regards
simon
