Re: no kickstart ?

I'll give this a shot in the morning, but it's not even downloading the
kickstart as it doesn't get a DHCP address, as shown by tty5 (no
response from DHCP server).  This machine has been reloaded a number of
times recently with 7.3 and 9.0, so I know the hardware is working good,
and it's been working great on the net since it was loaded.
