[gentoo-user] eth1 won't show up

[gentoo-user] eth1 won't show up

[Grant]

I have this:

# lspci
05:0a.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905B 100BaseTX
[Cyclone] (rev 34)
05:0b.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905B 100BaseTX
[Cyclone] (rev 30)

but from ifconfig I only have eth0.  Can anyone tell me how to investigate this?

Is that ifconfig, or ifcongif -a ?

Or in a less pedantic answer, have you started eth1?

I didn't think that through, sorry.  I think this is what I should have posted:

# /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
 * Starting eth1
 *   Bringing up eth1
 *     192.168.1.1
 *     network interface eth1 does not exist
 *     Please verify hardware or kernel module (driver) [ !! ]

forgive my basic English.

Look in:

/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

and see if another card is not marked as eth1 in the rules, if this is 
so, it removes the rule and restarts. This happens when you switch card, 
check to see if the macaddress are well allocated.

No problem, I just gave the first answer that came to mind when I saw
your post ;)

ifconfig -a will tell you if there are any cards detected which haven't
come up. Worth checking to see if the card has been allocated a
different number.

I switched some stuff around in that file, rebooted, and it's fixed.
Thank you very much.
