| From: Peter King via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | I haven't tried to ssh in, because at the moment it tries to boot | into a static ethernet address which isn't available, and so network | connectivity fails. When I have my ethernet ports configured in an inconvenient way, I have plugged in a USB ethernet dongle and SSHed in through that. Usually the dongle will have a default configuration that is functional in an ordinarly LAN. Where is the inconveniet network configuration? Do you use NetworkManager (config seems to be in /etc/NetworkManager) or the old scripts (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts on some system). If you can hide that obsolete configuration, you might be ahead.
