Drivers for SL-FRN2-L...

Hi everyone,

I've installed gentoo yesterday, it's all working well beside the fact that I can't get online. When I boot I get :
eth0 does not exist
ERROR : Problem starting needed services "netmount" was not started

After searching online for a while and browsing the forum I've concluded that I didn't compile the right drivers in my kernel...I'm sure I've included the one for nForce2 though, so how do I know which chipset this board is using?

dmesg didn't give me much, neither did lspci...

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Maybe you build the driver as a module, and it isn't loaded. Try:

Thanks, I'll try that after the thunderstorm we're going through. For the moment I've compiled an alternative kernel to boot with the network available using genkernel...seems to be working ok.

I'll let you know if it worked.
