1. check whether it already detect in kernel or not using dmesg
as we can see, we find ethernet call vmcnet/pci
2. give alias in /etc/modprobe.conf
as i have already new ethernet before. so i just add new one below the previous one. since newer ethenet is same with before, so the driver possibly same too
3. next step is probe the driver
if something goes well there will no error message
4. after that, try check using ifconfig
perfect, eth1 is installed in my linux box :-)
5. now, i'd like to give it ip. to make permanently, i will create new file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
or, if you got little busy, you can use setup menu
# setup
on setup menu, choose network configuration
after that, choose eth1
6. after finish setup, restart your network
/etc/init.d/network restart
