/etc/init.d/net.eth0 fails to start

[Danuvius]

I got my installation working just fine, except that /etc/init.d/net.eth0 fails to start fails to start. And the generic error message shown at boot time just vaguely mentions netmount.

How can I find out what exactly is wrong?

If this is likely one thing in particular, how do I fix it?

I have a router, so networking is setup for dhcp.

Thanks in advance!

what happens if you try: dhcpcd eth0

what does your /etc/conf.d/net look like?

are you using the proper driver for you kernl, are they compiled as modules, did you insert the module?

we need a bit more to go on.

Silly me...

I had to add coldplug with rc-update. My bad.

I guess my ethernet card was not being... detected/recognised/activated before.
