I compiled the Linux kernel once again with forcedeth and skge added and now it works as expected. :-) When I start my LFS I get my eth0 up, configured and running. One idea came to my mind: Maybe eth0 is my nVidia NIC. That would make it clear, why I previously didn't work. No driver for that NIC. I think I didn't check whether there was any network driver (e.g. for eth1) loaded before. Leonhard.
