Following up... I found the e100 driver at
http://www.intel.com/support/network/adapter/1000/linux/e100.htm and
followed the instructions there. Stuff is still not working. Looking at
/var/log/messages, I see

e100: eth0: eth0: e100_probe: addr 0xd6202000, irq 11, MAC addr
00:E0:81:03:AF:3C

I see a similar message for eth1.

A while later is
e100: eth0: e100_wathcdog: link up, 10Mbps, half-duplex

A while later it cannot find ntp.org

Then NETDEV WATCHDOG eth0; transmit timed out
then another watchdog message.

Any ideas?

THANKS!

Harold
