New F-15 install.

How is the ethernet connection made/assigned, whatever? I made
some changes via chkconfig and lost eth0 and eth1. Ethtool
simply reports no devices. Is there a routine for setting up
eth"x" or does it just have to happen automatically? That seems
unlikely.

I keep thinking it's simpler to re-install than mess with
troubleshooting some of these problems, perhaps F14 which I know
works for me. It is a learning experience however, if nothing
else I am learning what not to do!

Help appreciated.

Bob

That is if like myself, you don't use NM.

then
systemctl disable NetworkManager.service
systemctl enable network.service

YMMV

Ok, I did "systemctl enable network.service" but ethtool eth0
still protests "No such device."
It looks like it may be working during the boot process, all I
see are "OK's" no "fail" I tried creating a new user, no joy
there either. As I say it arose from messing with chkconfig and
not knowing what I was going to screw up.

Yes, I've used system-config-network to set up the connection
and that still looks good.

Have you got:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 content?

I use XFCE, but the bedrock should be the same.

Yes, and it appears unchanged from what it was. I can't easily
copy files to this computer without my eth1 connection.

I will have to copy that to a flash drive, will do in a little
while.

I have used only xfce for as long as fedora has existed, Window
Maker before that. I can muddle through with Gnome if need be,
usually long enough to get xfce installed, never bothered with KDE.
This install is from the xfce live spin.

Another problem shows up, the flash drive wont mount? It shows
up in lsusb but is not listed under /media as it should be. I
don't even know how to mount it manually. It comes up on the
desktop as /media/disk1 . When I click on mount it errors
"Failed to mount "disk1"

It looks like I am headed toward another re-install. Hate to
burn up my allocated ISP usage with the updates and added
program downloads. But I broke it myself so I can't complain!

What does ifconfig say ?
Also /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
(may not be 70)?

70-persistent-net.rules is there, I forced it to create anew last night. I could never copy all that manually without making a lot of mistakes.

ifconfig -eth1 "error - Device not found"

ifconfig -a lists data for em1,lo,and p2p1, with some ethernet HWaddr's for em1 and p2/p1.

There's no "network.service" so I've used chkconfig to enable the
standard "network" (on a core install box without NM).

The em1/p2p1 names are biosdevname's doing:

By default, there isn't a 70-persistent-net.rules.
