I managed to download and yum update this morning, however: When I boot: I see lots of mod_ins segment faults. Seems to be that the arguments to mod_ins are illformed. My network is not ifup after the boot. Moreover, when I do the little trick: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup eth0 there is a complaint that eth0 does not exist. if I do /sbin/ifconfig I only see the lo device. ---- To get more updates, I need a network. What is the best way to proceed manually to bring up eth0 so I can contact the outside world. (My inside world too - cannot contact this machine either). System is i686 smp scsi ipv4 - smp538 kernel.
