[gentoo-user] netmount; sshd borked

[James]

Hello,

OK so I'm now running udev-196-r1; booting fine now.

upon reboot:
net.eth0      [  stopped  ]
net.eth3      [  started  ]
netmount      [  stopped  ]
sshd          [  stopped  ]

eth0 is the mobo ethernet port, and it is fried.
I have not used it in years. eth3 is an add on 100M
ethernet card that has worked flawlessly. It is 
working fined still.

 /etc/conf.d/eth3 is set up and works just fine.

The easiest thing to do to fix this problem is
unmap the eth0 hardware. Where best to do that?

from lspci:
00:07.0 Bridge: NVIDIA Corporation MCP61 Ethernet (rev a2) <mobo>

1:06.0 Ethernet controller: Digital Equipment Corporation 
DECchip 21142/43 (rev 41)

Ideas on how to best fix this? Make the Nvidia ethernet chip 
invisible and the dec ethernet chip will automaticall be eth0?

Other ideas?

James

Well, most motherboards give BIOS (UEFI?) option to disable some
hardware that's present onboard.
I've a relatively old machine, so don't know what's the thing with UEFI.
My PC's BIOS has option to disable many things like Ethernet, Audio,
Serial Port, etc.

Best would be to delete/move the module for that hardware, and
de-configure it from the kernel.

or

remap ethX manually using /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
