Just checking, but do you have gcc installed? If you do a "which gcc" 
you should get something like "/usr/bin/gcc" back.

Is your ethernet card something esoteric, or a common card? I would 
think that if you simply plugged the card in then rebooted, the program 
"kudzu" should find it and load the drivers. Did you have a card in when 
you loaded RH 7.3? If not then maybe networking was not installed.

Others with more knowledge will be able to help more but hopefully the 
points above will get you going.
