Replaced NIC - eth0 does not exist


Recommended Posts

My old reliable UNRAD 6.2 server that I have been using for 8 years got damaged by a lightning strike. It took out the onboard NIC. I disabled it in BIOS and installed an Intel PRO/1000. UNRAID complains it doesn't exist and in fact all the lights on the card go out when the OS is loaded. 

 

Using a USB stick with Linux Mint I verified the card works in this machine very well.

 

I cannot boot into GUI mode, the boot mode selector doesn't respond to the keyboard so I am stuck in terminal mode. I don't know how to get to the syslog yet to examine it. Where do I begin to look to make this work again?
