Re: Eth0 will not work after kernel recompile
are you sure you are loading the correct module
because in kernel 2.4.XX the module name is "8139too"
,
unike in earlier kernel versions when it was "rtl8139"
.
If that is the case you might want to change this in
your "/etc/modules" or /etc/modules.conf file .
also you have to have CONFIG_FILTER and CONFIG_PACKET
as yes ( Y ) ( networking opions )when you compile the
kernel .
