Check out the Linux Networking-HOWTO and also the Linux Ethernet-Howto at:

In any case, if you were never prompted to enter any network config
information it may be because the NIC was never detected by the
installation routines. I've never had any problems with that in Red Hat,
since the install program is quite good. You may want to check and make
sure that there is no IRQ conflict.
