Network connection not working

I did an FTP install off the boot CD, everything went fine there. After I reboot and startup Arch linux, I get a FAILED message when it tries to start the network. I have my eth0 set to "dhcp" and INTERFACES set to (lo eth0) in rc.conf. I've used other distos before and my card uses the 8139too driver, NOT the 8139cp one. An lsmod shows that it is in fact loading the 8139cp driver. How do I get it to load the 8139too and not the 8139too driver?

Re: Network connection not working

you can edit /etc/rc.conf like this:

Modules = (uhci-hcd ehci-hcd 8139too)

and take away "hotplug" from the daemons array,

there is also a "blacklist"  for hotplug somewhere but I don't know where it is,


arch + gentoo + initng + python = enlisy

Re: Network connection not working

Add 8139too to MODULES in rc.conf or add 8139cp to /etc/hotplug/blacklist.
