hi, i actually successfully get my gentoo works...but i can't get my Marvell Yukon PCI-E NIC work, so after i collecting information from all over the place, i find that i have to recompile my kernel with the new sk98lin driver....after all, i manage to get my card work like this:

Quote:

bash-2.05b# lsmod

sk98lin 211340 -

bash-2.05b# ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0F:B0:82:C3:19

bash-2.05b#


but, when type: ifconfig eth0 up
it gives me: Segmentation Fault!

sometimes, when i reboot and modprobe, it just HANG! but after all, when i install the driver again, and modprobe it become ok, the problems seems like occurs when i bring the eth0 up...

* btw, i have boot with nodhcp, acpi=off, pci=noapci nohotplug in the grub.conf...
* the dmesg also list my Marvell Yukon card properly...
* in the /etc/conf.d/net, i uncomment the eth0=dhcp (bcoz i online through a router which connect to the adsl modem)

how to deal with this? any help will be very much appreciated! THANKS!

It looks like it is up but has no address. Have you tried dhcpcd eth0? Or giving it an address manually using ifconfig??
