No NIC Card?

Hello Everyone,

While trying to configure my network interface card on my system which runs mandrake 7, I have faced many problems. I used commands like netconf, drakconf, ifconfig etc to configure my NIC but of no use.

There is no output for dmesg|grep eth. Does that mean that mandrake is not able to locate my network card?
While booting it says "eth0 Initialization delayed"?

Can any one solve my problem?

Thanks in advance.

What kind of NIC does your machine have? Are you using the stock kernel? If not, make sure you have compiled in support for your card (or loaded it as a driver).
