Networking in Linux from scratch

How do I set up my network card in linux from scratch? I have a cable modem with a static ip and a 3com network card, and i set up the /etc/rc.d/network file just like they said in the manual, but when i boot to the lfs kernel, the network doesnt come up. Any ideas?

Hi,

What does ifconfig show? The network card should be eth0. If it is not there did you compile the module for the card? or something is wrong loading it. Try "ifconfig eth0 up" and see if there is any errors.
