Had read this FAQ many times and clicked "Configure Networking" and
selected system eth0 and connect automatically. Bottom line is that it
booted once but not a second time after logging off. Mentioned this I
think. So that is where I have difficulties. In FAQ 2 above, the 'will
start on boot in the future" is what id doesn't do. I can re-install
again if that's necessary and hope it works this time.
