[rc.conf]don't succeed connecting to my box

Hi.
I just installed Arch, but I block on the network's configuration.
Voici mon rc.conf, j'ai quand même essayé de comprendre (la syntaxe abscons).
eth0="dhcp"
lo="192.168.2.1"
INTERFACES=(lo eth0)
gateway="default gw 192.168.2.1"
ROUTES = (!gateway)
NETWORKS=(main)

Here is /etc/rc.d/network restart's stderr:
192.168.2.1 : error fetching interface information : Device not found
err, eth0:timed out
warn, eth0:using IPV4LL address 169.254.237.134

What happend exactly ? He didn't find the box ?
When I ping my box, I receive no packet.
Thanks.

Please read http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_network
Your setup doesn't make any sense at all.

Should my precedent "gateway" stay the same ?
Now the network is simply unreachable.
And the very nice "doesn't make sense at all" came from http://www.linuxpedia.fr/doku.php/archl … au#ip_dhcp !

*sigh*
'lo' should _always_ be 127.0.0.1 ...

[edit]
And no-where (inspite of my inability to read french) in your link does it say to put 'lo' to anything but 127.0.0.1

In short - your setup does not make any sense at all.

Then excuse me I badly read.

And I forgotten : I must use my second card, so it's eth1 instead of eth0.
But I doesn't change anything.
