Hello,

I've just installed gentoo with kernel 2.6.24-gentoo-r8 and I've all my modules missing. I can boot up correctly, but my network card isn't recognized...

my network card is a Intel Corp 82557 which works with module e100.
at startup during boot, I can see that e100 seems loaded etc... but then I got an error fatal : module e100 not found
lsmod is empty
modprobe e100 returns fatal : module e100 not found

Any idea how I can solve this?

Really wiieeeeeerd

Thanks in advance

Did you do make modules_install after kernel compilation?

Hi again,

finally, I find what was wrong. Regarding the lsmod, seems to be integrated in kernel in this new version so everything is blank and seems normal.

For the network card, I had to add it manually in this file /etc/udev/rules/70-persistent-net.rules and it worked after creating the script net.eth1 in /etc/init.d/

Wierd thing but solved.

thanks anyway
