[K12OSN] Can't see internet on fresh 4.2.0 install

[David D. Nelson]

I tried the acpi=off and it didn't change. When I ping
I get a network not reachable still. This box worked
fine on K12LTSP 3.x.

When I do a fresh install of 4.2.0 do I select the
HTML box if I'm not hosting web pages on this box?
Maybe it isn't the firewall and maybe it is the
network line. Any ideas?
