i had that problem once. either in beta or in 10.1 i cant remember 
but here is the solution. boot in 10, open a classic app, and when 
the classic app is open go to your apple menu and open your control 
panels apple talk should be on ethernet and tcp/ip should be on 
eithernet and dhcp.

you might just have to zap the pram
