Hi,
well after finally going through the painful installation of gentoo I finally find out that I can't connect to the internet.
The minimal livd-cd detected my onboard ethernet controller fine (which is the nvidia nforce networking controller).
This uses the forcedeth and sata_nv modules, correct?
I also checked by doing lsmod, and forcedeth was loaded when booting off the minimal live-cd.
However, when booting from gentoo, lsmod tells me forcedeth or any modules for that matter are not loaded.
How can I get the required modules onto it??
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help!! |

you need to list the modules in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 (or 2.4 if your using the 2.4 kernel). For example:
| Code: | | echo "sata_nv" >> /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 |
Also, make sure you compiled the right drivers into your kernel. |
