DL380 G5 Centos 5.3 network problem

t0m4s — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 18:48:08 GMT

i have installed centos 5.3 kernel 2.6.18-128.1.4.el5 on a DL380 G5 server
when the install its done i try to ping my gateway (192.168.0.1) but it says destination host unreachable
i run ethtool eth0 it's says
Supported oprts: [ TP ]

i dont know why it says not link detected, i try it connecting to a dlink router (192.168.0.1) directly and its linking, i try with another DL380 G5 server installing the same OS and gives me the same problem

Can somebody help me
Thanks

in the new kernel centos or RHEL change the interfaces
eth1 is the one above and eth0 is the one below

Anyways
Thanks

Actually it's the way the 2.6 kernel enumerates the PCI bus
