Subject: [gentoo-user] eth0 does not exist

1 I'm installing linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r7.
2
3 Network initialization fails during startup:
4
5 * Starting eth0
6 * Loading networking modules for eth0
7 * modules: iptunnel ifconfig dhcpcd apipa
8 * ifconfig provides interface
9 * dhcpcd provides dhcp
10 * Bringing up eth0
11 * dhcp
12 * eth0 does not exist
13 * Trying fallback configuration
14 * 192.168.0.4
15 * eth0 does not exist
16
17 The problem appears to be that /sys/class/net/eth0 does not exist.
18 This is a pseudo-filesystem like proc that I cannot manipulate.
19
20 Is there some configuration file that needs initialization or a package
21 that I need to install?
22
23 The documentation states: "DHCP is used by default and does not require
24 any further configuration."
