u probably have a different MAC address inside virtualbox, the "new"
one will be eth1 (or eth2 if you already had an eth1 etc). If you
remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, it will be
re-created on the next boot.

To confirm if my ethernet card is ok, i booted up Linux from Linux
partition. It came up perfectly ok and I can ping my gateway and i can
see eth0 in IFCONIG.

There is, but it only works if that partition table is currently
"unused" (i.e. none of its partitions are mounted).

Hi Don,
With 341mb to work with, you might want to go with a 24-32mb swap partition
and leave the rest as one Linux partition. That way, you won't be wasting
space in a partition that could've been smaller if you'd only known. It will
also simplify installation.
On your first run
I have a Pentium 75 using Win 98 with 2 hard drives. All of my files

to install debian
linux on the D: drive using cfdisk, but cannot figure how to set up the
linux partitions on it, namely the amount of sp
The df command will show that data for all mounted partitions. If you
use df -T, it will also list the file system type for each partition.
