DHCP is still unable to bring up eth0. I get the following error message:
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
In the log files I get [rc-scripts] Failed to bring up eth-0.
However still when I run dhcpcd after i login everything is fine.
Any help would be greatly apreciated. |

| make sure that you load the modules for the card before you try to load dhcp |

| It sounds like you compiled support for your network card as a module but forgot to add that module to /etc/modules.autoload. |

Did you "nano -w /etc/conf.d/net" and uncomment the dhcp lines?
What about adding the net.eth0 config to the default run level using the fllowing command:
rc-update add net-eth0 default ?? |

Thanks for all your input. I feel pretty stupid. I forgot to set up the default gateway with the correct address everything works great now.
