Hi Timothy,
thanks for your answer!

I substituted 'IPV6INIT=yes' with 'IPV6INIT=no' in every 'ifcfg-eth0'
I could find and tried again --- unfortunately with no result :(
Determining IP information for eth0...: failed
... as before.
I appended the 'ifcfg-eth0' files and - I hope this could be of some help -
all '/etc/...' files of my old working fedora core 1 installation which correspond to
those I appended to my last mail.
Still - thanks for your efforts! I learned already something: the main difference
between ipv4 and ipv6, my first step into a new world and ... hopefully to some
solution :)
Greetings and best wishes, Die
