Here is what ifconfig -a gets:

de0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        address: 00:80:19:44:3f:d9
        media: Ethernet autoselect
        inet 192.168.0.6 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
de1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        address: 00:80:19:44:3f:b5
        media: Ethernet 10baseT
        status: active
        inet 192.168.0.6 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
lo0: flags=8009<UP,LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 32976
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 296
sl1: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 296

This is after trying to install and failing when sysinst tries to ping
the nameserver. Note that both interfaces have the same IP addy because
I tried one in sysinst and then when it failed changed to the other. de1
seems to be the one connected to the network. Any clues? Anyone?

cheers,
