Hi
	I hope you will be able to help me with this. I am currently trying to
install
mandrake 7.1 onto a machine with 2 DFE570tx (4 port) cards on board. The O/S
install seems to work fine. I reboot the machine and that goes ok as well
the system comes back up and binds eth0 ,eth1 ,eth2 ,eth3 to the correct IP
addresses. However when I look in the /var/log/messages file I get an error
saying...

 kernel: eth0: media is unconnected, link down or incompatable connection.

do I need to build and install a tulip driver or should it already be part
of my kernel ?
Or is there something else that I am doing wrong ?

Thankyou for your help.
