Hi!

I am trying to get my NIC working.
Code:
Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c940 10/100/1000Base-T [Marvell]


I saw here that I should use sk98lin. I tried that by reading this.

It didn't work so I tried searching in the forum and found this which didn't help either.

So now I have no idea where to go!

dhcpcd eth0 gives me:
Code:
Error, eth0: ioctl SIOCGIFHWADDR: No such device.


cat /var/log/messages | grep -i eth0 gives me:
Code:

May 19 09:59:23 user dhcpcd[4527]: eth0: dhcpcd 3.0.16 starting
May 19 09:59:23 user dhcpcd[4527]: eth0: ioctl SIOCGIFHWADDR: No such device.
May 19 10:06:58 user rc-scripts: Configuration not set for eth0 - assuming DHCP
May 19 10:06:58 user rc-scripts: network interface eth0 does not exist
May 19 10:06:58 user rc-scripts: ERROR: cannot start netmount as net.eth0 could not start


Anyone?

sk98lin was deprecated by skge IIRC.
