Here is my syslog, can anyone make sense of this? I have a Netgear FA311 fast ethernet PCI NIC, and it boots fine and gets an IP from the livecd.

Step 1: Do you have a dhcp server? Are you plugging straight into a modem or do you have hi speed? |

I'm on a cable modem, DHCP server is with Comcast, and I do have available IPs, like I said it gets an IP fine when I boot with the live cd. |

Hey there,
Even if dhcp is set up incorrectly, eth0 should still be able to be brought up. I had a problem similar to this when I first started using gentoo. The things that I did to make my eth0 work were to: 1. Make certain that the correct nic module is being used and loaded at boot time. 2. This was the weird part, for some reason ACPI would not allow my nic to get used (it was a setting in the bios).
For the short term, put 'acpi=off noacpi' on your kernel command line and then you won't have to figure out how to remove it from the kernel.

same error, I tried a few different things
"acpi=off noacpi" and "acpi=force" and either way it gave me the same error
This is frustrating |
