Hi
I recently installed Mandrakelinux on a PPC Beige G3 (Mac). When I installed it 
the installer detected the 
ethernet card and allowed me to configure it. The computer is inside a small 
network behind a router 
with a DSL connection. I gave it a static IP, entered subnet, gateway, and DNS 
servers. However, the 
computer is now invisible in the network. When it boots up I get an error about 
the localhost saying 
that the IP has been taken by another device or interface. When I do ifconfig, 
it only shows me the 
loopback interface (lo), nothing else, no eth0 at all.
It's interesting to see that I get another error about USB failing. I have no 
USB in that machine.
Can someone tell me what I need to do? I'm familiar with FreeBSD, so I'm not 
such a newbie.
Thanks
