Hey guys, i´ve a few problems with my gentoo on my IBM Thinkpad T21.

With net-setup eth0 form the live cd, everything is fine. Ping and so on...

but without the livecd and normal boot he doesn´t find eth0 and netmount also doesn´t start.
So I checked the forum and tried the tips in the main topics,but nothing helped.

I tried to take over the net config from the net-setup eth0 during the live-cd session.....no changes
But I noticed something,what is really strange (i´m new on gentoo so ^^):
with the lsmod command there are no modules aviable. 8O

And i don´t know why. In make menuconfig i checked everything i need.

I used the last Universal CD from 2005 to install gentoo.

Can somebody please help me?

If you check an option in menuconfig with '*' (opposed to 'm') it will be built in the kernel, and you'll not see it with lsmod. Please post lspci output if you want to check that you've configured the correct options for your network.

Here the controler part from lspci

0000:00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev09)

and in menuconfig i checked:

Device Drivers-->
Ethernet (10 or 100 mbit) -->
[*]ethernet (10 or 100mbit)
[*]eisa,vlb......
[M] Intel(R) Pro/100+ support

with lsmod there is no eth0 modul or any modul...its blank (the table name excluded)

Edit:
I don´t know if it´s important,but i have in /usr/src/ 2 directories:
linux and linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r10

Which version of udev are you using? And did you emerge coldplug? Try to manually load the module using
Code:
modprobe e100

Did you run
Code:
make modules_install

after changing kernel config and compiling?

Let's start again. Check that /usr/src/linux points to your kernel sources:
Code:
ls -l /usr/src/linux

should list a symlink to /usr/src/linux/linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r10. Then run
Code:
cd /usr/src/linux
grep E100 .config

Check that CONFIG_E100=m is listed. Then run
Code:
make
make modules_install

After that install your kernel image, either copying bzImage or running make install (depending on how you've configured the entry in grub.conf). Reboot and try again to modprobe e100, if it's not already loaded by coldplug.

Here is what i got:
Quote:
CONFIG_E100=m
#CONFIG_E1000 is not set


and i did at the end "make install" (because i did this during the installation,according to the doc)

no changes....

In grub i booting with:" kernel /kernel-2.6.11-gentoo-r3 root=/dev/hda6" (i know that this is not the correct name,but according to the doc this is only a name which you set during the kernel installation)[/quote]
