OK, looks like something we'll have to work on. > DJ> In the meantime, I'm going to try installing pure64 on this > Opteron machine as a start.

Apart from not putting the partitions where I thought I asked them to be, the only problem was that the installer kernel didn't recognise either of the ethernet cards - I have an on-board sk98lin gigabit chipset plus an old-school PCI RTL8139 card for safety. They both seem to be recognised by the installed K8 kernel on reboot, so now it looks like it's manual configuration time. Should etherconf do the trick?
