No idea, sorry.

&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Starting afresh, I followed the steps up to running XFdrake (but not
</I>&gt;<i> running XFdrake yet).  I tried 'ifup eth0' but 'Running in chroot.
</I>&gt;<i> Ignoring request'.  After &quot;exit&quot; this changed to &quot;Running in chroot.
</I>&gt;<i> ignoring request. ./network-functions: line 260: cd:
</I>&gt;<i> /var/run/netreport: No such file or directory.
</I>
I guess just bring up eth0 before entering the chroot

&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Incidentally, how do you reboot or shutdown when in chroot - and/or
</I>&gt;<i> how do you reverse 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.
