Hi guys,
Having trouble to get my eth0 internet working.
The kernel version:
[c]tux@slitaz:~$ uname -a
Linux slitaz 3.2.71-slitaz #4 SMP Sat Oct 22 01:37:29 CEST 2016 i686 GNU/Linux[/c]
dmesg returns nothing:
[c]tux@slitaz:~$ dmesg | grep -i eth
tux@slitaz:~$[/c]
ifconfig does not even mention eth0 (but dumm0):
[c]tux@slitaz:~$ ifconfig -a
dumm0 Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr 9E:82:E3:0A:68:9C

...[/c]
lspci returns nothing:
[c]tux@slitaz:~$ lspci -nn | grep -i eth
tux@slitaz:~$[/c]
Does anyone know what is going wrong here? And how to solve this?
Thx

You have to install pciutils to get human-readable output from lspci command.
Bellard removed it from the packages.list of every flavor.

The busybox version only outputs binary info.

Thx mojo, but to install something, I need eth0 working .... Too bad :-(

Post the full output:
[c]ls /sys/class/net[/c]
[c]lspci[/c]
[c]lsmod[/c]

Thx mojo, for info:
- I must copy "by hand from one pc (no internet) to second one. So I "cut" the output...
- This is the official slitaz-rolling iso, so all the module must be already known. No?
[c]tux@slitaz:~$ ls /sys/class/net/
dummy0 lo tunl0[/c]
[c]tux@slitaz:~$ lspci

Let's hope you can still help me with those partial output.

What you posted has no info related to an ethernet adapter.
You will need to identify the ethernet adapter, download the driver, and compile/install the driver.
Use a USB flash drive to transfer files/software between the computer with internet access to the computer without.

Yes mojo, that's the point. Does that mean no driver for this ethernet board inside slitaz-rolling? Let's see. ;-)
For info, the ethernet board is: Intel I217-LM (VENDOR ID: VEN8086, DEVICE ID: DEV153A)
The latest Linux driver available for download from intel website is: e1000e-3.3.5.3.tar.gz => needs to compile, which needs slitaz-toolchain package which needs internet to install... :-/
So lets check if the module is already available in this live session:
[c]tux@slitaz: zcat /proc/config.gz | grep E1000
CONFIG_E1000=m
CONFIG_E1000e=m[/c]
=> yes module is here. So load it:
[c]root@slitaz:/home/tux# modprobe -v e1000e[/c]
=> verify that module is loaded:
[c]root@slitaz:/home/tux# lsmod
Module Size Usedby
e1000e 104780 0
....[/c]
=> then, next error: grrr!
[c]root@slitaz:/home/tux# ifconfig eth0 up
ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device[/c]
What am I missing here?

Slitaz kernel 3.2.71 e1000e has no support for i217 ethernet controller.
Ethernet support was added to e1000e driver for i217 ethernet controller in 3.5 kernel series.
The out-of-tree driver is required to use i217 with the 3.2.71 kernel

Install attached e1000e-3.3.5.3_3.2.71.tazpkg
If in-kernel e1000e is auto loading [c]rmmod e1000e[/c]
[c]modprobe e1000e[/c] to load new 3.3.5.3 module.
Info from my system after installing e1000e-3.3.5.3_3.2.71.tazpkg.

Thank you Mojo, once again your answers were highly valuable.
Then:
- from windows, download the e1000e package supplied by Mojo,
- copy it to usb flash drive,
- boot slitaz live from usb,
- open xterm,
- copy the e1000e package from usb to /home/tux
- login as root,
- install it: tazpkg install e100e-3.3.5.3.3.2.71.tazpkg
- load module: modprobe -v e1000e
- set it up: ifconfig eth0 up
- start it: /etc/init.d/network.sh start
Done and solved. Thx.
happy slitaz
