I upgraded my RH 6 box to RH 7.1.

At the completion of the upgrade, after the system rebooted, I got 
the following message during boot:

bringing up eth0 interface: delaying eth0 initialization [FAILED] 

When I run "ifconfig eth0", I get:
 
eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found 

ifconfig -a only reports device lo 

The lan card is a 3c509

I then attempted to install RH 7.1 from scratch but the install 
program never asks about the LAN card or any network questions.

As a last resort, I reinstalled RH 6 and the install program detected 
the card correctly and installed the interface.  It worked.

I upgraded to RH 7.1 again with the same result.

Does anyone have any experience with a similar problem?  All 
suggestions gratefully accepted.
