First of all you need to compile yourself a new Kernel with the your
Ethernet Card
selected. Compile it as module or direct into the Kernel, for ISA Plug
and Pray Cards
you need to run the ISAPNP uttility to configure them. Please check the
Hardware Howto
for supported Ethernet Cards, and the Kernel Howto for Compiling a new
Kernel.
Hope it will help
