Re: [gentoo-user] DHCP Setup

[sakul]

Meka's suggestion didn't work (thanks anyway, Meka) and I used lsmod 
but none of the modules seemed like they were linked to my ethernet 
card. So, I'm just gonna boot from the cd and chroot to my root 
partition, then emerge X-Windows. Hopefully I'll be able to clear up 
the problem when I boot with a GUI. But if anyone has any other ideas, 
please don't hesitate to suggest them.

If Meka's suggestion was not it, are you sure you have the correct
network drivers installed (and if a module, enabled)??
One tip to get the drivers you need is to boot with the livecd, setup
the network, and do an lsmod and see which network drivers you are
using.  Then, rebuild your kernel with those drivers selected either as
a module, or built directly into the kernel.

Hi, all. I was wondering if someone could help me with an annoying
problem I'm having. I successfully installed and booted Gentoo 1.4rc_4
from the LiveCD. During the installation, I had used net-setup to set
eth1 (my one and only ethernet card) to DHCP mode and it worked fine. 
I
could use emerge, lynx, and the other network software that boots with
the CD. But when I booted Gentoo from my hard drive after I installed
it, I simply could not emerge my system. I modified /etc/conf.d/net so
that the only uncommented line reads "iface_eth1="dhcp"", used
rc-update to add eth1, and rebooted my system, but it STILL didn't
work. If anybody could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. I
think moving from RedHat to Gentoo will be worth the trouble I've had.
Thanks.
