I tried installing RH 7.3 and it came up OK - though I haven't
tested the network.
It is interesting to note that I we have some similar boxes -
about a year old, which I have spent a significant amount of time, failing
to set up, playing a series of games with the two ethernet ports and the
floppy install. Although this mostly plumbs the depth of my ignorance I
had little trouble setting up some more standard desktop boxes. And the
network problems I had on a couple of the boxes were fairly esy to solve.

Possibly you are doing something fundamentally wrong, but it is
not trivially wrong

Did anyone do an LCFGng install onto one of these boxes before the
order went in?

What happened to step three?
