Re: Trouble with eth0
First u need to make sure your kernel has the right
drivers for your nics either compiled in or as
modules. Secondly, you need to make sure
/etc/network/interfaces is setup correctly. Thirdly
if you use dhcp to connect to your isp, then you need
to make sure either pump or dhcpcd is installed for it
to work.
hopefully that will get you on the right path
