This is driving me crazy. I install Ubuntu Server on a portable drive at home. Fire it up on a wired network and check ifconfig. It dutifully gives me the internal ip address from my router and is able to access the internet. I then dutifully reboot the machine turning it off after everything is killed but before the reboot starts.
The scene changes to my office where I turn on a different machine with no drives but the portable drive on the USB port. Ubuntu server boots up and works just fine until I sudo ifconfig. The internal loop shows 127.0.0.0 shows but the wired network ip address does not. Init.d/networking restart gets an eth0 no such device message. Ubuntu LiveCd on the office machine get the network and internet just fine. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated or even a large hammer would be appreciated.
