eth0: unknown interface: No such device

Hi all

I know that this problem was being solved here, but I am still stuck.

During boot process I receive the message:

eth0: unknown interface: No such device

I have already configured /etc/rc.conf and module for Realtek Ethernet si also loaded.. I can see it in lsmod, so it's ok.

Configuration:
HP Compaq nc6120, 2.6.13-ARCH (default distriobution kernel)

Thanks a lot for help.

Hmm... are you certain that you've got the right module raztos?

The error usually comes when your kernel hasn't got the right driver in it, or when it can't find the module for the device.

Hi

When I write lsmode I can see there module for ethernet realtek...something like eth1234 (i don't know name of module exactly because I am out of my linux box).So I think that there is no error.

I am still stuck with this problem ...:|

Is MOD_AUTOLOAD enabled?
