Re: 1.3.1 Upgrading Probs

You should have your gateway in your network startup file 
(/etc/init.d/network ?). Now you have only GATEWAY="" and it does not look 
right.

After running the modified network startup script the route command should 
output something like this:

# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway       Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
193.96.166.0    0.0.0.0       255.255.255.0   U     0      0        1 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0       255.0.0.0       U     0      0        2 lo
0.0.0.0         193.96.166.1  0.0.0.0         UG    1      0        1 eth0
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^
             GATEWAY in the network startup file

Otherwise the ifconfig and route output look ok.
