I'm trying to turn an old 166 32mb of ram pc into a linux box. I can install the software correctly, and when I install the network card it sees the driver that its supposed to. But when I start Linux I get the error message that it can not resolve an IP.

I have the computer connected to a router that is set up dhcp, and my internet connection is adsl. How can I get linux to be able to resolve an IP?
