To manually specify an address, type the following as root:
ifconfig eth0 some.ip.addr.ess netmask some.sub.net.mask Example: ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0
then add a default route: route add default gateway some.ip.addr.ess eth0 Example: route add default gateway 192.168.1.1
You should be able to at least ping your default gateway at this point ping 192.168.1.1
Let me know if any of that works.
