What kind of network card? What message do you get a bootup about the
network card? What happens if you manually "insmod" the network card
driver (e.g. "insmod 3c509" or "insmod ne")?
One common problem is that Red Hat ships the 2.0.32 kernel with the "ne"
(NE2000) driver compiled as a module, but the NE2000 driver currently
doesn't work as a module :-(. Not Red Hat's fault, it's the fault of the
kernel maintainers, because the stock one off of ftp.kernel.org does the
same thing, but you'll probably need to compile the NE2000 driver into the
kernel to make it work right.
