Hi John I've had the same issue since upgrading with a Surecom PCI NIC on a homebuilt deskstop. It seems that the network card just isn't being brought up: ifup eth0 as root and all is fine. However why this isn't happening automatically I don't know. In both /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 and .../profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 I have ONBOOT=yes. Anyone know if there is a new config file in FC1? cheers Matthew Wilson.
