Network not working after install, but eth0 present

On the archlinux 2009 install livecd the auto network config worked like a charm. When I installed, I had it take the rc.conf from the install session and use that for my local copy. When I booted to the newly installed distro, it didn't get an address from the dhcp server.

ifconfig indicates that the device is there, and in the output of lspci the last line is:

06:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 13)

I'm not sure what's wrong, I've read the man pages for dhcpcd and dhcpcd.conf but I haven't found anything useful.

What can I do to get my network card set up with an IP address?

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

Can you post the network section of rc.conf?
Also the output of 'ifconfig -a'

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

Certainly, here's the networking section of my rc.conf

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# NETWORKING
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# HOSTNAME: Hostname of machine. Should also be put in /etc/hosts
#
HOSTNAME="nbox"

# Use 'ifconfig -a' or 'ls /sys/class/net/' to see all available interfaces.
#
# Interfaces to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each interface then list in INTERFACES
#   - prefix an entry in INTERFACES with a ! to disable it
#   - no hyphens in your interface names - Bash doesn't like it
# 
# DHCP:     Set your interface to "dhcp" (eth0="dhcp")
# Wireless: See network profiles below
#

#Static IP example
#eth0="dhcp"
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)

# Routes to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each route then list in ROUTES
#   - prefix an entry in ROUTES with a ! to disable it
#
gateway="default gw 192.168.2.1"
ROUTES=(!gateway)
 
# Enable these network profiles at boot-up.  These are only useful
# if you happen to need multiple network configurations (ie, laptop users)
#   - set to 'menu' to present a menu during boot-up (dialog package required)
#   - prefix an entry with a ! to disable it
#
# Network profiles are found in /etc/network.d
#
# This now requires the netcfg package
#
#NETWORKS=(main)

And here's the output of 'ifconfig -a':

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:18:F3:3D:97:87

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

Do you get any errors if you manually start dhcpd?

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

If I start dhcpcd, then it errs saying that it's already running. If I run a 'dhcpcd -x' and then start in manually, it forks to the background and then I get no further output.

I'm curious what's different about the installer, it had no problems getting a lease.

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

dhcpd is run when you boot because of the way rc.conf is set up.
Try running it manually again but kill the existing process first.

Also check your logs.

cat /var/log/everything.log | grep dhcpd

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

When I start it manually, the string

Oct 21 12:30:20 nbox dhcpcd: eth0: MTU set to 1492
Oct 21 12:30:20 nbox dhcpcd: eth0: MTU restored to 1500

is continually appended to the log, I'm not sure what it means though

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

Kill it with kill and start it manually by just typing this (no -x):

dhcpd eth0

that'll give you output in foregorund.

from here, it sounds like it's just not getting an address from dhcp server. rc.conf is right, and you're atleast getting something out of the connection judging from your ifconfig -a.

Re: Network not working after install, but eth0 present

"carrier lost"
It's dropping off your dhcp server. I assume since you have no networking ability that you haven't upgrading anything?
It doesn't seem to be a config problem but possibly the incorrect module is being detected by udev.

That's just a guess by the way. I'm out of ideas.
