I got an error ``Cannot find device "eth0"`` when starting network daemon.
The network part in rc.conf is
interface=eth0
address=
netmask=
broadcast=
gateway=
My laptop is Lenovo Y460 and the adaptor is a Broadcom one
Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 01)
I have following script in /etc/rc.local
modprobe -r tg3
modprobe broadcom
modprobe tg3
/etc/rc.d/network start
When the last line executes, the error occurs.
I tried
ip addr
it shows lo and wlan only (and I could connect via wlan):
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
inet6 ::1/128 scope host
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
3: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP qlen 1000
link/ether ----------- brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet ------------ brd 255.255.255.255 scope global wlan0
inet6 ------------------ scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
could anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

Try running
ifconfig -a
to see list of all network interfaces. It could be possible that it's named something other than eth0.

This seems like it has history...

What does dmesg have to say about loading/initializing the module?

Thanks, but unfortunately it has nearly the same result: lo and wlan0 only.

Thanks a lot. I have noticed this bug before, and used the same trick to workaround (I haven't added network to DAEMONS in rc.conf and start it manually in rc.local I posted) for several months. The problem occured at the day before yesterday after I updated my system, one week after the previous update. Is there any way to show what have been updated last time in pacman or yaourt?
