Whoo--I saw the Matrix last night, quite a trip. On to business. What exactly is eth0? From the way I've seen it discussed I always presumed it was a device node, residing in the /dev directory, just as ttyS1 is my modem, ttyS0 is my mouse, hda is my first hard drive, hdd is my cdrom. But during the boot up sequence it tells me it's initiating eth0 as SMC EZ ethernet whatever at 0x300 with irq whatever, but no eth0 appears in /dev. I know everything initialized right because I can smbmount over the ethernet, so the missing link must be my understanding of what eth0 refers to.

The page is currently being carbon dated in Bonn. If genuine it belongs at the beginning of the Bible and is believed to read "To my Darling Candy.
