I do not see the "natsemi" module loaded there. Make sure
/etc/modprobe.conf has following line

alias eth0 natsemi

The quotes are unbalanced. Put a # in front of the NAME line.

So what happens if running "modprobe -v natsemi" in the syslog? Run a
second terminal with "tail -f /var/log/messages" to see that in parallel
to loading the module. Does the eth0 then use an IRQ? "service network
restart" should activate eth0 and show it in "ifconfig" output.
