+I guess just bring up eth0 before entering the chroot

+</I>
+chroot starts a shell. When you exit from that shell, you're out of the
+chroot. An &quot;ls /mnt&quot; should indicate where you are: if you see all of
+your root partition's root directories, you're out of it. Inside it,
+/mnt will contain whatever it contains on your root partition (if it
+even exists).
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So - I'm back in console, without running any of the steps yet. Can
+</I>&gt;<i> you give me the command to add the non-free source and tell me how to
+</I>&gt;<i> get eth0 working?
+</I>
+It's &quot;urpmi.addmedia', but the exact syntax depends on where your mirror
+is. Check the man page.
