Hi Josh,
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the default kernel of YDL CS1.2
doesn't support the GigEth machines yet (but it should really soon). There
is a way to get it installed with an updated kernel, but it is a hack.
Check the archives of this list, cause there have been a couple of posts
on how to do it. If you can't find anything, let me know and I'll forward
some other posts on how to do it.
BTW, MacOSX Server doesn't boot on these machines either.
Cheers,
Chris
