What is the NIC in the box where eth0 isn't showing up?

Is the driver in your kernel?
No. It's a module (e1000) and I watched it compile. I tried a static
driver as well.
lspci say's http://pastebin.com/md3578a6
I deleted etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and rebooted. Now
there's a message that loading module e1000 failed, and still device
eth0 does not exist as well as device eth1 does not exits, but there
are symlinks in /etc/init.d for both.
Just seen this, following my other reply.
`tail -f /var/log/messages` in one window whilst running the `modprobe
-v e1000` in another.
`dmesg` should show the same stuff as /var/log/messages (in this
instance, at least), but using `tail -f /var/log/messages` it's easy
to hit enter a few times (to clear some space on the screen) and then
see what's happening in real-time. Although there's probably a very
good reason for it, it's sometimes frustrating that `dmesg` isn't time
stamped.
Stroller.
