If you have an eth0 device, the hardware is recognized and the driver is
loaded. Apparently the link is not ready.
*) Could the cable be faulty?
*) To what switch is the NIC connected?
*) Is there a speed/duplex mismatch?
*) For gigabit, you need 8-wire cables, for 10/100 you only need 4 wires
(pins 1/2 and 3/6). Is that correct?
*) If connected to a switch, is STP active (port not yet in FWD, takes
up to 50s)
*) If your switch is manageable, what does that side 'say'?
