Okay, So I haven't dealt with my LAN line yet, because I've been away from my xbox lately. Anyways, I went through the networking guide and I got to copying over the net.eth1 initscript and when I run it, it says that eth1 does not exist. but,
Code:
localhost init.d # lspci | grep Marvell
00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 13)

I'm nearly positive that it's supported by the kernel, as I haven't messed up with non-wireless modules.

Are you sure there are 2 ethernet cards, and that the modules for both are either loaded or the drivers are compiled in to the kernel?
What is the output from lspci | grep net?
What about the output from ifconfig -a?

The modules for it could be off...wait, what is sit0? I have an onboard ethernet line (what I thought used to be eth1). It used to be eth0 until I re-compiled my kernel with support for my wireless card (which then became eth0). I had eth1 working. I updated my kernel to 2.6.15-r5 from 1.6.12-r10. That may be why it's sit0. I don't know what sit0 is?

Is eth0 still your wireless card?
iwconfig should let you know if eth0 has wireless extensions..

sit0 is something else..

If eth0 is the wireless card, then I am guessing that either the module for the ethernet card is not loaded, or not compiled.

sit0 is my ethernet...that used to be eth1. Anyways, I just copied the initscript from net.eth1 to net.sit1 and changed all instances of eth1 in /etc/conf.d/net.

Everything's good.

Thanks.
