eth0 not detected?

[Nathan Blythe]

Okay, moving on from the last problem, now I can't set up the network.  I run:
  settrans -fgcap /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i eth0 -a and so on

and I get the message:
  /hurd/pfinet: eth0: (os/device) no such device
  settrans: /hurd/pfinet: Translator died

I take a walk over to /dev/ and see that there is no eth0 in my 
directory.  I run ./MAKEDEV eth0 and get:
  ./MAKEDEV: eth0: Unknown device name

So am I shot down, or is there something I should be doing to get eth0 
recognized?  The card (I'm not sure of the kind right now) works fine and 
is autodetected in linux.

Any help is appreciated.
