Last night I tried upgrading my kernel to 2.4.22-gentoo-r1, but for some reason, my nic wasnt coming up. Here's my dmesg:

Code:

bash-2.05b# dmesg | grep eth0
eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at 0xe0862000, 00:0a:e6:62:a4:8a, IRQ 5
eth0:  Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139C'
eth0: Setting 100mbps full-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 45e1.
eth0: Promiscuous mode enabled.


Booting up in 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 works just fine, but on startup with 22-r1 i get the following:

Code:

[dhcpcd] dhcpStart: ioctl SIOCSIFFLAGS: Device or resource busy_


I have "RealTek RTL-8139 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support" and "RealTek RTL-8139 C+ PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support (EXPERIMENTAL)" compiled directed into the kernel with both 22-r1 and 20-r7. I tried compiling only one at a time for the 22-r1 while troubleshooting to no avail.

What am I missing?

I also tried bringing up net.eth0 w/o using dhcp, but that didn't work either (resulting in the same SIOCSIFFLAGS error).

Any help would be appreciated, or should i just stick with 20-gentoo-r* until 22-gentoo-r1 gets unmasked?
