The Installation

    LMCE 0810 beta2 Installation
    1. Followed the internet installation instructions located here
    2. Upon reboot, I temporarily hooked the monitor to VGA to go through AVWizard
    3. Chose DVI output, 1080p, 60 Hz, OpenGL with Alpha Blending, stereo sound, 100% volume, and hit I Agree
    4. Upon finishing the AVWizard, there was a grey screen with large text displaying each package that was installed
    5. This continued until it got to the Orbiter Regeneration
    6. After the orbiter regeneration, I had the infamous grey screen with a cursor
    7. I used Alt-F2 to get to get to tty2, and logged in
    8. I edited the /etc/network/interfaces file as such:

    /etc/network/interfaces
    auto lo
    iface lo inet loopback
    auto eth0
    iface eth0 inet static
       address 192.168.200.42
       netmask 255.255.255.0
       gateway 192.168.200.1
    auto eth0:1
    iface eth0:1 inet static
       address 192.168.80.1
       netmask 255.255.255.0
