Hi,
Yesterday I tried to make a connection between my three PC
to manage my Epson printer: two with Win XP and Gentoo
and one with Win7.
I didn't succeed, but that's not important!
After reboot of the three machines
I went back to Win7: no problem
and to my laptop with Xp and Gentoo: OK.
But the problem is on my desktop with two HD,
one with XP and the other with Gentoo amd64.
None of them can connect to internet neither gentoo nor XP.
I tryed many things (revdep-rebuild, verification in the box, etc.)
but I was unsuccessful. Here is what I become at boot:
* Bringing up interface lo
* 127.0.0.1/8 ...

Could please anybody tell me how to solve this awkward problem?
Thank you very much
Roger
