1 Hello all,
2
3 I have a machine[1] into which I installed a second NIC. It is identified
4 by lspci as:
5
6 00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Accton Technology Corporation SMC2-1211TX
7 (rev 10)
8
9 The driver, 8139too, is compiled as a module and loaded by udev. After
10 booting, lsmod says:
11
12 8139too 18304 0
13
14 I have net.eth1 symlinked to net.lo in /etc/init.d/ and /etc/conf.d/net
15 is empty. When I try to start interface:
16
17 # /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
18 * Starting eth1
19 * Configuration not set for eth1 - assuming DHCP
20 * Bringing up eth1
21 * dhcp
22 * network interface eth1 does not exist
23 * Please verify hardware or kernel module (driver)
24
25 I'd appreciate any help.
26
27 Thanks,
28 Roger
