Use dmesg to check on your build host which driver your network card uses.
Write it down. Then configure it into your LFS kernel. Some card drivers have
very similar names; I had exactly the same experience as you when I
accidentally specified the wrong driver.
Well, the problem is that I have not specified ANY driver. Where should
I specify it? In the menuconfig?
Thanks!

Yes, of course. You'll find it under Device Drivers -> Network Device Support
-> Ethernet Driver Support. But I would *strongly* advise you first to read up a
bit about kernel configuration and kernel building. There's plenty of good
documentation online.

Thank you for your suggestion. Yes, I should read more than LFS alone, I
know.
I took a look at dmesg and used lspci to confirm it: I have RTL 8168d /
8111d NIC.
However in the menuconfig I can only find 8139C, 8129/8130/8139 and 8169.
So it seems I am out of luck.
