I told the PC to "emerge world"; will that rebuild everything with the new i586 CFlag? Do I need to rebuild the kernel too? It took twelve hours yesterday to build the kernel. Would the packages being built for i686 affect the networking capabilities too? I rebooted the PC and couldn't connect to my LAN. I rebooted with the LiveCD and copied over /etc/resolv.conf and copied over /etc/conf.d/net from my main client PC (running Gentoo with a similar setup except that networking works). 8139too successfully modprobed. net.eth0 was running. netmount was running. Gentoo failed to get a DHCP address from my router and it couldn't connect to my network, but I can't figure out why...
