Seeing a network card

[Al Sparks <data345 yahoo com>]

I?m trying to get Red Hat to see a network card.  The motherboard is an
Intel D815EEAAL FCPG/PPG and the NIC chipset is 82562ET.  From what
I?ve been told by the vendor, the NIC is a part of the motherboard. 
It?s not a separate card.

When I go to the Intel site, and search for 82562ET, I an download a
driver file called 100pdisk.exe.  Since the site doesn?t mention Linux,
I figure it?s for Windows.

I do the regular stuff to configure it for the network, such as
assigning an IP address, a network mask, etc.  I specify "eth0" as the
net device.  When I bring the machine up, and do a 
   > ifconfig -a
All I get is "lo", and "eth0" isn?t included.  That?s inconsistent with
all the other installs I?ve done.

Of course I?ve tried telneting to another host, and I get "no route to
host" errors.

I?m running RH 6.2.

Anyway, I?d appreciate any hints on how to troubleshoot this, and if
anyone has any knowledge of this type Intel motherboard.
