What are you doing to get the driver set up? have you: 1) insmoded the 3c509.o module -OR- compiled it hard into the kernel? 2) if so, what does it say when the module is loaded/on boot up? After you get the hardware driver working, eth0 should exist, and you should then be able to set up the ifconfig and routeing tables. --Evan
