any idea how to add network devices. it Boots correctly but it doesn't seem to detect network interfaces
I added this to /etc/network/interfaces

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
    address 192.168.241.2/29
    gateway 192.168.241.1

But it's not yet pingable

that did the trick rc-update add networking boot
