[gentoo-user] local network interface
Hello, I am getting an error on startup about not having configured my eth0 right. The thing is i don't have network access on that machine neither an ethernet card. So i think loopback (lo) should be enough, no matter though, Gentoo asks me to specify one. What should i do then, what configuration should fit this particular need? file in question: /etc/conf.d/net Thanks in advance. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Check "rc-status" and remove eth0 from there if necessary.

I don't know where would you get that file, if you ever considered having your computer connected to net. In /etc/conf.d are many files that you don't need to use currently.
