I downloaded the latest version of the Knoppix LiveCD the other day so I could try it out and become familiar with the OS, and also just in case Windows ever fails and I need to get in and do something. Problem is, when I get in my network connection doesn't work. I am using the onboard ULI ethernet on my ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 motherboard. Here's what I've tried:

1. Knoppix menu-> Netcardconfig wizard. It asks if I want to use DHCP on eth0 or eth1... I'm pretty sure eth0 is my network connection, and eth1 might be the firewire 1394 connection on my sound blaster card? DHCP fails for both. When I say I don't want to use DHCP it asks me to type anything in manually.. I know what my ip address, gateway and subnet mask are (from ipconfig in windows) but I'm not sure what to put for the other boxes... Anyway I end up just clicking OK and it does nothing.
2. Some Googling around showed commands like "ifconfig eth0 up" and "pump" which both do nothing.
3. I went into the configuration page for my Motorola VT2442 router and made sure DHCP was enabled.
