Ethernet Card + Linux = Uh oh.

KernelPanic:
Sorry, I missed another error.
In step 6 you should be running dhcpd, not dhcpcd.

Orethrius:
GAH my bad, thanks for catching those KP.  I thought he said Slackware 10 and my paternal instincts took over.

NekoIncardine:
Thanks to the both of you for helping me. Given my newness to Linux and the fact that I've had to experiment with Windows XP's Command Prompt (which mostly serves to make me miss the days of Windows 3.1 and DOS - What I wouldn't do for a modernized Windows 3.1-style interface.), I actually typed in 'ipconfig' not 'ifconfig' the first time.

Now to turn the box back on, remember my root password again, and see if it works THIS time.

EDIT: ... And dhcpd is not a recognized command either. I'm starting to get really frustrated with how this tends to happen to me with Linux. X-x;

WMD:
Using Mandrake?  Don't use the command line.  Try to configure/install the card using the Mandrake Control Center.
