Yes but we will need some details, what card is it, make type etc,
If monkey linux has a modular kernel then the chances are there will
be a module for it, takeing a ne2000 for example the following sould
do the trick.
Modules reside normaly in /lib/modules/2.x.x/*
modprobe ne io=0x300 <- use you address of course.
ifconfig eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx up
If the driver is compiled into the kernel then just using the
ifconfig example should be enough.
