Hi guys....
Although I'm using a x86_64 PC, I am almost sure that this problem does not have anything to do with my architecture, so I'm posting this topic here and not in the Arch64 forum.
While booting (if I'm not wrong, while executing the /etc/rc.multi script) arch tries to start the network. Some of the time, all steps get "DONE" as status, but mostly (7 out of 10 times I boot the system) I get the following error for network:
:: Starting Network [BUSY]
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
[FAIL]This is the result of my network in lspci:

I've already tried to run /etc/rc.d/network start or /etc/rc.d/network restart, and it prints to the console every time the same mistake. Basically, what I do today, is restart a few times until I get a working network.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance!

this message:
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
means that the network card has not eth0 entry in /dev, what means that there is no network card.
Try adding 8139cp or 8139too to MODULES array in rc.conf:
MODULES=(8139cp)

Also.. On your eth0= line your broadcast is 192.168.0.255 and based on your ip of 192.168.200.10.. the broadcast should be 192.168.200.255
dont know is that will help.. but you never know.
Keep on m'ARCH'n

Thanks a lot! Adding the modules to the MODULES array in /etc/rc.conf solved the problem!
