I got Gentoo installed and booted fine, but i cant get the network driver working at all. I selected everything that looked related in the kernel but no luck.

Is there any guide somewhere that has the steps to install it on Parallels that i can check with?

hey i just got it to work, here is the configuration:
Code:
10 / 100 Mbit:
...

CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y
CONFIG_MII=y
CONFIG_NET_TULIP=y
CONFIG_NET_PCI=y
CONFIG_NE2K_PCI=y
CONFIG_8139TOO=y
CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO=y
CONFIG_8139TOO_TUNE_TWISTER=y
CONFIG_8139TOO_8129=y

...

1000 Mbit

CONFIG_R8169=y


(i typed that up so don't just copy and paste)
the important one is ne2k_pci, in the install cd if you
Code:
dmesg

or
Code:
lsmod

you will see it loaded.

i ended up just restarting the vm and copying /proc/config.gz and adding all the modules that the live CD loaded (after a few boots i got it narrowed down to about 10)
