Can't browse any where - FC1 freshly installed

Hi,

do a /sbin/route, you should get something like:

Ziel        Router          Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
10.0.0.0    *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0   *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
default     10.0.0.1        0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

while the entry with the Flags "UG" must be there, so you get access to
any other network. The router n this line must be the Interface/IP-Adress
to the Internet, otherwise you get everywhere, but not to internet. To add
the UG-entry, juste uste route add eg like route add -net default gw eth0.
It might also be possbile, that your externel interface has to be eth0 not
eth1, so you perhaps can also try with aliasing your interfaces
