Hi all,

I just learned of Proxmox about a week ago and wanted to give it a test drive. I installed Proxmox_VE_3.0 on a 64-bit machine I was planning to use for something else. Hardware is a Gigabyte Z77-DS3H System board with a I5-3570K CPU. Installation completes successfully but I cannot connect to the console using Firefox with the latest Java installed. I cannot ping Proxmox’s addy or ping out of proxmox.

When I boot Proxmox I see the error; interface eth0 does not exist.

ifconfig shows an entry for the loopback port, venet0 & vmbr0.

/etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
addr 192.168.1.200
mask 255.255.255.0
gw 192.168.1.1
bridge-ports eth0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0

The Ethernet controller on this board is a Qualcomm Atheros AP8161/8165.

Should I be seeing an entry for eth0 when I do a ifconfig? Suspecting a driver issue but I am out of league here. Any information on how to load the correct driver or ? will greatly be appreciated.
