Yesterday I upgraded my RH4 system to RH41 and something went very wrong.
Suddently I could not access the network.  I found out today that there
was not even a /dev/eth0 listing.  I do have an old boot log saved in my
mail folder and this is what I've got:

eth0: DE434/5 at 0x6000 (PCI bus 0, device 11)
hw address 00:00:c0:01:9f:0e,
requires IRQ11 (provided by PCI BIOS)
de4x5.c:v0.44
eth0:media is TP
IP addr is 0x100007f

Right now the computer says it's suspending initialization of eth0.

1. How can I turn on eth0?

2. How can I assign my IP to that device?

3. Where are the boot logs located?

Note this is an upgrade not a clean install; networking had worked
flawlessly under 4.0.

Thanx for any responses...
