I have a fresh install of FC1 on a Sony Vaio laptop model number
PCG-992L. Previously, this laptop has had a dual-boot Win2000Pro and
RH8, and later RH9 and even Mandrake at a couple of brief points. I
wasn't using the Win side at all, so I erased the entire hd and
installed "everything" from FC1. The installed seemed to without error.

When I try connecting to the net at my office using DHCP, I can't hit
the net. eth0 fails on boot. I tried activating it via
redhat-config-network and that didn't do anything.

Some output from several commands I've tried (thanks to Sombrero on
#fedora for the help on what commands to try!) is reproduced below:

# /sbin/lspci

(rev 03)

(the following is a snippet result of lspci -v)

01:08.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM/CA/CAM Ethernet
Controller
(rev 03)
         Subsystem: Intel Corp. EtherExpress PRO/100 VE
         Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 66, IRQ 9
         Memory at f4100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
         I/O ports at 3000 [size=64]
         Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2

(the following is a result of modprobe eepro100)

/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/net/eepro100.o:
init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
       You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/net/eepro100.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/net/eepro100.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/net/eepro100.o: insmod
eepro100 failed

I experimented with the BIOS setting for Plug-n-Play Devices set at both
Yes and No, and didn't see any change.

Does anyone have any ideas that I could try out to get the NIC to hit
the net, or other commands I should run to get more data to better
figure it out?

Thanks,
Clint
