Neil, I ran a google search on "VT6102 + Linux problems" and I saw various peoples posts about their problems This does seem to be a common issue What I dont understand is that FED 6 & 7 & 9 worked on this machine perfectly before (8 never worked because it didnt recognize my SATA hard drive) Now after loading CentOS 5.2 FED 9 doesnt work anymore
I will try the NIC card replacement experiment and send the results this evening.
