Hi list,
I've been struggling with this for a while, I am setting up this new
machine, but got stuck because I can't find a way to make the network
card work... According to lspci:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82573E Gigabit Ethernet
Controller (Copper) (rev 03)
The weird thing is, it works just fine when booting the LiveCD, dmesg shows:
Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 7.2.9-k4
Copyright (c) 1999-2006 Intel Corporation.
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:02:00.0 to 64
e1000: 0000:02:00.0: e1000_probe: (PCI Express:2.5Gb/s:32-bit) 00:10:c6:a1:5a:41
e1000: eth0: e1000_probe: Intel PRO/1000 Network Connection
e1000: eth0: e1000_watchdog: NIC Link is Up 100 Mbps Full Duplex
e1000: eth0: e1000_watchdog: 10/1000 speed: disabling TSO
but when booting the local kernel:
Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 7.2.9-k4

ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 17

It appears as if driver works and has created the device but...
The device was not created (and yeah, that's weird since there's a
mention to "eth0" in dmesg), also the init script is there and there
is a config for the interface at rc.conf/net. It seems the probe is
not working, as it never detects the link is up or down...
What does ifconfig -a return? A lot of times udev will "remap" the
device name. Especially if there is IP over firewall.
