ETH0 Identification and activation help requested
 
On install and reboot
lspci
00:0a:Ethernet controller 3c905b 100BaseTX (Cyclone rev 30)

RedHat9 sees a 3c509 and I don't know where I need to go...

Can not activate because it is the wrong chipset?

Assistance please...

If linux can't determine the right chipset for your pci card, then you will have to add an alias line in your /etc/modules.conf
like this
Code:
alias eth0 dmfe
You may also have to add options to this to tell wich I/O address it should use.

Forgot to mention, but of course you should exchange dmfe with the right driver for your card.
