Wow, thanks for your quick reply! (And sorry for my delay ;)
No, there is no such line in the interfaces file. Only thing referring
to eth0 is the usual 'iface eth0 inet dhcp'.
I'm a bit confused about the interaction between /etc/network/interfaces
and /etc/pcmcia/network.opts. My understanding is that the information
in /etc/network/interfaces takes precedence, and eliminates the need to
set anything in network.opts.
Or should I be setting DHCP="y" in network.opts? If I do so, should I
remove the eth0 line from interfaces? Any other suggestions? I'm a bit
new to all of this, so perhaps I'm missing something obvious.
