[cobalt-users] qube3 DHCP problems

i just received my Qube3, set it up and nothing happened. specifically,
the DHCP server did not appear to be serving on the primary ethernet
port and the secondary port's DHCP client was having problems getting an
address from my DSL modem.

during the boot process, the LCD display shows the Qube3 looking for a
DHCP server and then displaying DHCP FAILED! i had thought that the
message indicated that the Qube3 could not find a DHCP server. it should
not be able to find a server since it is going to be the one doing the
serving. i've tried letting the network auto-configure run and i've
mnaually set an address for the port both with no results.

any ideas? below is the output of the boot process from the serial
console between the dashed lines:

----------------------------------
the serial console also will not let me log in. i see the
output, but it does not seem to see my input. is there a
control lead or something i need to raise to get the qube3
to recognize a presence on the serial port?

thanks,
