Hello and Happy New Year! |

I was just updating from kernel linux-2.6.24-gentoo-r7 to |
4 |
linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r7 using the "oldconfig" method, and I cannot get |
5 |
the new kernel to load my network. I have Intel network hardware that |
6 |
runs on the E1000 driver, which I generally compile right into the |
7 |
kernel - never had any problem. For some reason, the |
8 |
linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r7 kernel leaves me netless. I try to start the |
9 |
"net.eth0", and it says 'please verify your hardware driver' or |
10 |
something to that extent. Has anyone else encountered this problem? |
11 |
|
12 |
I just compiled linux-2.6.25-gentoo-r9, and everything runs fine - no |
13 |
network problems at all! |
14 |
|
15 |
Is this a known problem, or have I run into a freak case of bad luck? |

Cheers, |
