It's not the network driver -- it's dhcp. Set the address manually and
it should work OK.

That doesn't seem to do it.

On the Alt+F3 message screen, I get

WARNING: no network link determined on eth0

There used to be a problem with networking on RHEL (or FC) virtual
machines on VMware where the pcnet32 driver was reporting that there is
no link. The workaround was to disable the link checking in the network
startup scripts.

That was fixed in the kernel ages ago. Also this problem appears on the virtual e1000 adapter as well as on my physical box with e100, so this does not appear to be the cause of the problem here. But it was was the same bug I was thinking of initially, when suggesting that it might be a regression in the pcnet32 driver.
