eth0 does not exsist

[pupdaleon]

i'm dual boot between fedoara and gentoo i plan on getting rid of fedora as soon as i can get gentoo running

installing was fine when i boot into my new system i get

bringing up eth0
assuming dhcp
eth0 does not exsist
ERROR: problem starting needed services "netmount" was not started

i have tried

/ect/init.d/net.eth0 start I get the same message as above

i need to load my driver modual

nano -w /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4 and added

8139too

i loaded 8139 because i have a RTL-8139 ethernet card yours may differ

did you have to pick any options in your kernel? because i did what you said and it failed loading not sure if its loaded in the kernel, or if i typed it in wrong, but i put 8139too i have the same nic

[hate_machine420]

i had to recomple my kernel because the realtek wasnt checked im waiting on that now ill post agian after i reboot and see if that fixed it i put 8139cp too because thats what was listed when i did an lsmod on the live cd it had both

[hate_machine420]

both modules failed, but when i recompled my kernel it worked so i dont have to have 8139too or 8139cp in /etc/..... load up
