Hi,
I'm installing 3com Etherlink II card on a 2
computers.. one running Debian, the other running
RedHat. I've never done this before.. :)
I know how to use ifconfig to configure the card ..
I've done it at work but it seems that my puters at
home can't "see" the new ethernet card. I know they
are compatible cards (3c503 etherlink II). At work, I
can type "ifconfig -i" and I get eth0 and lo.
At home I only get lo.
My problem is that I'm looking for "eth0" under /dev
but it's not there. I compared with work and it isn't
under /dev/ either so I'm assuming it shouldn't be
there. So how do I configure a nic? And can someone
explain where linux is getting 'eth0' from if it isn't
under /dev/?
Any help I can get it VERY much appreciated.
-T
