Are you sure that your NIC has been detected by linux? I've got some of these
too and it works without any problems using recent kernels; Do you see anything
like:
Sending DHCP requests .eth0: network connection up using port A
speed: 100
autonegotiation: yes
duplex mode: full
flowctrl: symmetric
irq moderation: disabled
scatter-gather: enabled
, OK
(speed should be 1000...)
This has been taken from one of my fai-install logs, so it does work...
HTH,
