Hi guys. At last there is a moment free to look at my Gentoo install again..
Problem #1: No network.
I've followed the instructions & edited out the entries from my make.conf, put in appropriate nameservers in resolv.conf, and have only a "lo" device reported from ifconfig. Lspci & lsmod confirm that my natsemi device has its requisite driver running, but is it eth0? How can I tell, when there's firewire & orinoco wireless to confuse things? How do I make it go? I tried, & got:
#ifconfig add 192.168.0.2 eth0 SIOCSIFADDR: No such device add: unknown interface: No such device eth0: hostname lookup failure
Have looked around the desktop & found no obvious config tools.
Sorry, my *nix skills are yet 'intermediate' at best.
KDE is looking sharp though.
Googling as we speak, but 1st hit Gentoo Network APpliance (GNAP) isn't what I'd expect / able to be emerged yet.
Cheers,
Rik
