Hi Kenny. Well that command doesn't work, so the package isn't installed. I 
believe that package was lost during my first failed recover attempt. I will 
have to run apt-get check when I get back to the machine. I also used pump with 
the ifup script. Speaking of which, do the ifup/ifdown scripts come with the 
pump pkg? Bc when I did the initial install who knows how long ago, those 
scripts used pump. I know this because when I modified something in pump.conf, 
the changes would take effect once I ran ifdown/ifup to reconfigure eth0. So 
for now at least I am looking at reinstalling pump and dhclient.

Hi all. Well I finlaly got my box back up yesterday. It seems to be humming 
away smoothly for the time being. I do however anticipate that the drive will 
fail within the next year, because it does make some squeaking noises at times. 
However thankfully, nothing hear to what happened about 5 days ago.

Hi all. Well finally got my system booting last night again. Hwever I still 
don't have networking, and when I did ifdown eth0 I go ta messsage about 
couldn't find /var/run/dhclient.pid. Does anyone know what packages I should 
reinstall to get this working again i.e., pump? Which package specifically 
contains the ifup/ifdown scripts? I know that there was no typ of net package 
in the potato base system, has this changed since the latest stable version? 
Thanks!
