You don't give any info about the network card.

It seems according to
https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/makepdf.php?type=post&pageid=0&scale=0.66&post_id=105611

That your card should work with rtl8139 drivers. By default Endian have 2 drivers for r8139. Try to do some research in that way...
/lib/modules/2.6.22.19-72.e18/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.ko.gz

The commands you should need will be modprobe, insmod and rmmod. Read info about how to use them.
Maybe ifconfig (for enable and disable ethernet NIC).

About the config files, check /etc/modprobe.conf and all the files on dir /etc/modprobe.d/, especially the blacklists config file, to ban unwanted drivers that can conflict with your card.

I think it has some resemblances with Debian. Endian is based off Linux from scratch.

This is source from I got information

"Load the proper module(driver) for your ethernet card:
The list of compiled ethernet card drivers that come with your system are usually located under /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/net where 2.2.14-5.0 is your kernel version. The source code for these drivers are usually located at /usr/src/linux-2.2.14/drivers/net again where 2.2.14 is the kernel version you are running. Sometimes the comments at the beginning of the source code file will tell you which ethernet cards the driver is for. Some distributions will find it during installation and automatically load the driver for you. To see if this is the case, view the file /etc/modules.conf or /etc/conf.modules depending on your distribution. If you see a line that looks similar to alias eth0 ne2k-pci, then the third item on the line is the module being used for your ethernet card. In this example, ne2k-pci, the NE2000 driver is being used. To verify the module has been loaded successfully, issue the command /sbin/lsmod. This will display all modules successfully loaded in the system. Once your module is loaded, you are ready to move to the next step.
If the module is not loaded, but you know what module your network card uses, issue the following steps as root:
Make sure the network is stopped by issuing /etc/rc.d/init.d/network stop.
Manually load the module by issuing /sbin/insmod ne2k-pci replacing ne2k-pci with whatever your module is. This module must be present in the /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/net directory for lsmod to find it.
Verify it loaded successfully by issuing /sbin/lsmod.
Activate the eth0 device by issuing /etc/rc.d/init.d/network start"






But the problem is that the "network start" command and the "insmod" don't work

if you could send a "how to" it would be very nice from your part because as you know endian has it's own file structure for exple: the directory src doesnt exist as sudirectory of usr like the classical distribution of linux .
