Hello Everybody!

I need a little help with setting up a new network card:
I changed mainboard in my computer, and I have new integrated network card, 
works with forcedeth module, but I don't know how to set up.

I tried modprobe forcedeth, but not appears eth0.
Can somebody help me, what should I do?
Distro is Etch.

Thanks,

  

change in /etc/network/interfaces ethx into eth6

What does  /sbin/ifconfig -a  says about the interface ?

Did you use a fresh install or a previously installed system, if it's 
not a clean install the eth0 identifier can be retained by some udev 
rule in*   */etc/udev/rules.d/yx_persistent-net.rules   where yx are 
random numbers. Interface names are associated with MAC addresses and 
not released when the interface is gone* *unless the rule is erased or 
changed.

FYI, you didn't need to change udev, you could have just changed
/etc/network/interfaces to use eth6 instead of eth0.
