Just as an update, updating the kernel to 2.6.10 didn't help (assuming I configured it correctly). Modifying the 'tulip_core.c' file didn't help either. I found a site that suggested these changes:

Code:

-#if defined(__alpha__) || defined(__ia64__) || defined(__x86_64__) 
+#if defined(__alpha__) || defined(__ia64__) 
 static int csr0 = 0x01A00000 | 0xE000; 
 #elif defined(__i386__) || defined(__powerpc__) 
 static int csr0 = 0x01A00000 | 0x8000;

The + is the new line and the - is the old line. I've found another suggestion that says 'ip_conntrack_amanda.c' changes udp packets and throws off the checksum. Before I start messing with that file I'll try hardcoding values for csr0 in case the trouble is actually there.

how about dhcpcd eth0? dhclient should work though. I've found that dhcpcd works more reliable than dhclient.

dhcpcd worked like a charm. I might have a question in the future about using 'service network start'. I think it will probably use dhclient if I used that command still.
