Well, if you're installing new, simply use the setup program, and set up
your network.
Otherwise, rtfm "Ethernet-HOWTO", 'man ifconfig', and 'man route'. I
honestly don't know whether there is a 'netconfig' like Slackware had;
I've either gotten what I wanted via the initial setup, or by tweaking
/etc/init.d/network.
