Hey Gang, Bringing up a new install of 7.1 on an HP Kayak XU800 with a RealTek RTL8139 NIC card. I installed from an ftp server after selecting the RealTek RTL8129/8139 NIC kernel module during the yast1 ftp install. After the successful install SuSE rebooted and everything except the NIC came up. Which is strange since I just got done installing over that same NIC. The errors at boot time are: ---------------------------- Initializing random number generator done Setting up network device eth0 modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth0 SIOCSIFADDR: No such device modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth0 eth0: unknown interface: No such device modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth0 SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth0 eth0: unknown interface: No such device modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth0 SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth0 eth0: unknown interface: No such device failed ---------------------------- This same system works just fine on the 7.0 install. I went ahead and copied over the /[etc|sbin]/init.d/network and /etc/modules.conf from a duplicate Kayak XU800 successfully running 7.0 SuSE to no avail. Anybody got ideas what's wrong. -jpg
