Message-Id:	`86a89beczv.fsf@reader.local.lan`

1	Setup: VBox vm running gentoo(amd64) guest on a win-10 (64bit) host
2	Hardware: HP xw8600 - 2x Xeon CPU X5450 @ 3.00GHz - 32 GB ram
3
4	Having a problem getting a network up... I know the rudimentaries of
5	ifconfig and route enough to use them to create one.
6
7	However the error I get with trying that seems to preclude that
8	method.
9
10	SIOCSIFADDR no such device
11	enp0s3 error while getting interface flags: no such device
12
13	Does it mean the tools for creating such a device are absent or what?
14
15	I've hit this before a good while ago and don't remember any more how
16	to get around it.
17
18	The link in /etc/init.d/ like: `ln -sf net.lo net.enp0s3' is present
