To have nForce support you need to select:
[*]   Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)  --->
   [*]   EISA, VLB, PCI and on board controllers
      <*>   nForce Ethernet support

Yep, this works, thank you! I did not search for this driver
in 10/100mbit, because manual says it is 1gbit. Does it mean
this net-adapter is working only as 100mbit in linux? Anyway
it does not matter. My internet connection is not that fast...

Just one more surprise:
During installation before chrooting I copied resolv.conf
to new system, as advised in handbook (chapter 6.a. Chrooting).
But after I first booted freshly installed system, I found out
that /etc/resolv.conf is empty, just saying something like:

# Generated by net-scripts for interface eth0
domain mydomain

Nothing else. So I edited this file, included nameservers, and
again, after booting it is empty. I went through handbook once
again, carefully checked chapter "8.b. Networking information",
but there is no info about this strange "feature".
Did I do something wrong during installation???

Jarry: You got the empty /etc/resolve.conf because dhcpcd overwrite this file whenever your computer start, to avoid this you only need to set up /etc/conf.d/net (for example config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) ) as suggestion in the Gentoo handbook.
