Hi Bill,
Ran into exactly same thing when I installed the Centos5 version as well. In the end I had to add a 2nd older pci NIC card and disable the onboard nic to get it to recognize the card.

For some reason Centos didn't set up modules to work with onboard NIC. Recall there was others that had similar experiences around that time as well.

after installing appliance, I removed HD and replaced with a 2nd HD configured to triple boot othe OS's versions, and the onboard NIC worked fine.

Added Centos RD appliance HD back into the HD mix as the prime drive, and was able to switch OS's on boot after that as well. If u need to re-install Centos OS at any time have to disconnect the 2nd HD, as appliance will wipe drives and comandeer all space for the install.

cheers hope this a help

Andy

Anyone else have these problems? I'm on my 18th hour trying to load the Broadcast Appliance LiveCD on our systems here.

2 of my 4 computers work fine, 2 don't. One of the ones that doesn't is the server. I get "failed; no link present. Check cable?" One of the ones that fails is an Intel motherboard's "e1000e" NIC and the other is the onboard NIC in a Dell OPtiplex 740 (Broadcom) that comes up as "tg3". Both of these were working on RRAbuntu yesterday morning when I started the change over. What's even moer frustrating is that I got the vanilla Centos 5.5 LiveCD down from a Centos mirror site just to see if it was different and it works fine on the broken systems.

Now I'm stuck here. Can't leave the station cause I have to keep putting on the 4 hour wav file we've been playing while the automation is down. <sigh>
