  Yes I did. Whey I boot the system it tell me something like

   SIOCADDRT Network unreacheble.
   eth 0 : unkown Device
   SIOCSIFBRDADDR operations not supported by device.

  The problems must be my NIC card. How do I go about reconfiguring it. So
it works.

sorry but I need to know where exactly .bash_profile is located and which
editor do I use to  edit it.  I tried the vi editor.  I show nothing and I
don't know the command to get out of it. Even control c  (^C) does not help.

Thanks.
