I am having some issues with the forcedeth driver.

My system is an Athlon XP 2800+, on an MSI K7N2 Delta Mobo based on the 
NForce 2 chipset.  I have a dual boot with WinXP and Fedora Core 2 and 
spend 99% of my time in FC2.  Once in a while I shut the system down. 
When I boot from a cold boot right into FC2, the forcedeth driver 
appears not to work.  I am not able to get to the net over my cable 
mode.  Bringing eth0 up and down, unplugging the network cable does 
nothing.  However, if I reboot into WinXP, and then reboot right away 
back into FC2, the forcedeth driver works like a champ.

Is there anything I can do to look into what might be causing this 
issue?  Any more information I may be able to send to help?

Thanks for any help,
