Motor is running, but not off the ground

...thought I'd add my /etc/network/interfaces file as an example for you.

As you can see I have two net cards, eth0 and eth1. eth0 is set static, and eth1 is set to use dhcp.

# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup, ifdown

# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
name Loopback: virtual interface

# The first network card - this entry was created during the Debian installation
#auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
name eth0
address 192.168.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
network 192.168.0.0

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
name eth1

You are my hero.

That is exactly what I needed to work. Thank you. Now I am going to concentrate on getting sound and video card to work....but first a deep breath. Thanks for the support and help.
