Subject: [gentoo-user] net.eth0 won't work!

Message-Id: 1250709027.4375.11.camel@camille.espersunited.com
1 A couple of weeks ago my ten year-old(ish) server box died. I've wanted
2 to replace it for a long time, and last week we finally did. We took it
3 to our local computer shop to have a new hard drive installed, as the
4 old one used an IDE hard drive and the new PC's motherboard doesn't
5 support that. The tech cloned the IDE drive onto a SATA drive and
6 installed the new SATA. We got it back this morning. I've re-built the
7 kernel several times over the past few hours, and I cannot get net.eth0
8 to work when not booting from the livecd. I've got the error message,
9 lspci and lsmod from the last boot off the hard drive (though I had to
10 boot with the livecd in order to copy it to my main PC to send it to
11 you). The error message is:
12
13 * Starting eth0
14 * Bringing up eth0
15 * 192.168.1.2
16 * network interface eth0 does not exist
17 * Please verify hardware or kernel module (driver)

21 The old box used 8139too, but e1000 is what I use on my newer machines.
22 I modprobed it, and still the error message didn't change. Here's

194 If there's any other information you need from me in order to help me
195 get this working, let me know. The kernel is Linux 2.6.29-gentoo-r5,
196 the same one as on the livecd I'm using. I'm also using the livecd's
197 kernel config. I just can't figure out why it's not working, since it
198 works when I boot with the livecd...
