Configuring Network Interface

[Keith Hodges <Keith.Hodges@warwick.ac.uk>]

I am running Knoppix 5.0.1 with a persistent image, and I am strugging 
to get the system to configure my network card automatically.

I start my system with:

knoppix home=scan myconfig=scan

and have put the following into knoppix.sh

modprobe ne io=0x300 irq=10

it appears that every time this runs it picks a new ethernet interface 
e.g. eth5 .. eth6 .. eth7
as seen in ifconfig -a

at boot following the knoppix.sh it says "starting networking.... done" 
and then
it says /etc/networking/options is deprecated.
and then some errors follow as it seems to be processing the entries in 
/etc/networking/interfaces
I havent got the log in front of me (is it saved somewhere?)

any help would be greatly appreciatied

best regards

Keith
