I am a newbie, and so simply generate the kernel with the command "genkernel all" without any modification of the .config file.
Maybe I should compile the driver into the kernel, but which option corresponds to my eth0 device? I am confused.

Run "lsmod" as root to see available modules and then to load "modprobe e100". Have you customized your kernel-config or just used the default one (genkernel). HTH.
