RE: local net problems
I think I had this same problem. Let me have a look at your
/etc/init.d/network.
I thought it was something that I scewed up during the install but it looks
like it might be a bug. It sets the local interface as the default route rather
than setting it to what is supposed to be the gateway. (looks like the local
interface somehow gets plugged into $GATEWAY).
