Assuming you installed using the 'net and not one of the other offline options, then your LiveCD apparently has the right modules for your system. If you did a genkernel instead of custom kernel build, then you are likely to have the module built you just need to figure out which one is needed. Boot up with your LiveCD and then check lsmod. You can compare the 2 lsmod outputs: lsmod > lsmod-LiveCD (with LiveCD booted) lsmod > lsmod-custom-kernel (with installed system booted) You will of course need to redirect those somewhere stable (such as /mnt/gentoo/home/user/) otherwise after you reboot to boot your kernel you will lose your lsmod output :) and then compare them. See if something obvious pokes out.
I did lsmod when I was booted to the CD and got e100 which I interpreted to be the driver for Intel [Ethernet Pro 100]. I did lsmod when I was booted to the HD and got e1000. I think this is the problem but what should I do now? I tried using modprobe but I'm not sure what I'm doing. I think we have the files for e100 on the HD. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
