My network card (Marvell Yukon/SysKonnect SK-98xx Gigabit Ethernet Adapter) isn't supported by Gentoo install-cd. Included module is too old. There is a new, updated driver on manufacturer site http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/d0102_driver.html
Please, patch your kernel and update install-cd, I think that it will save my and many other users time  |

Have you tried Knoppix? It might support it.

I have the same one(mobo is ASUS A8V Deluxe), it is, and has been supported by the Gentoo Install disc for quite some time. From what I remember there are two drivers for this card the closed source driver(the one you link to) and the open source driver from the kernel. The gentoo install disc uses the open source drive. I know what I first put in the install disc my card was not found all I had to do was the following command to get networking working
| Code: |
modprobe sk98lin
ifconfig eth0
dhcpcd eth0
|
If your not using DHCP or that dosnt work look here. |
