If you have the MACs of the cards written down you can just do an ifconfig -a to tell which is eth0 and which is eth1. Does Debian net install allow you to choose which of the network cards to perform the install over? -- Carl Patten ------------------------------------------------------------ --== Sent via Deja.com ==-- http://www.deja.com/
