friday night, i installed weeks worth of stuff w/yum including fc3 770 kernel and on reboot connection stopped working. dhcp would work, but everything else was host not reachable. i rebooted with previous two kernels and still no network connection. something else in the updates eliminated the default routing for 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0. i edited network configuration and added it to static route ... and then the next time, it said that default static route wasn't supported ... but at least it got rid of the host not reachable.


I did an ftp upgrade Friday from development and got the mix from that date to install. I get a resolution now and am currently able to connect to the Internet with no tricks. Up2date ended up being broken and yum is not configured to install whatever it can resolve, then report on unresolved deps for packages, so upgrading can be less problematic.

I guess the kernel is not responsible directly for the error.
