Installation of RHEL 6.2 was successful however the HP network card is not being detected correctly. 

When issuing the ifconfig -a statement, eth0 or eth1 does not have an inet address. 

Can any provide the HP specific network driver for RHEL 6.2 x64 bit or viable workaround.

Thanks,

Chris

Hello,

in linux by default card driver dont have an adresse try this:

#ifconfig ethX <address> netmask < address mask> up

Good luck

If "ifconfig -a" lists the card, then the card is detected by the driver. But does the OS have any settings configured for it?

Do the files /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 exist?

Do the MAC addresses specified on "HWADDR=" lines match the actual HW addresses listed in "ifconfig -a"?

Is the "ONBOOT=" line set to "yes"?

Run "ifconfig <network_card> up", wait a few seconds, then "ethtool <network_card>". Does it say "Link detected: yes"?
