You can use curl (included), or just: rpm -ivh http://whatever/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm > Step 12: Use chkconfig to make sure eth0 comes back on reboot > # chkconfig No need to do this - xs-setup-network will "take over" your network configuration. > Step 15: > > Add a USB-to-Ethernet dongle and plug into WAN > Must run xs-setup-network and then reboot because we added a USB > ethernet dongle (WAN connected) and now XOs have internet access, but > no name resolution! There was no need to run xs-setup-network again, you could have just added the WAN connection and rebooted.

The fact that you had no DNS without this rings a bell - am I right in saying you had the same problem on XS-0.6 on your network without adding a forwarders entry? > Problem: XS seems to cause XOv1 computers to repeatedly restart X > (brief text messages say something about dcon freeze?) > Happening to both XO-1 and XO-1.5 running build 883.
