(1) Can you reproduce this with the current release? See
   http://busybox.net/
(2) Can you reproduce this with current trunk?
(3) does the HW and the driver work if you manually up the eth0 and ping
   some other host?

>(linux 2.6.11.12, linux 2.6.18 and linux 2.6.19 ).

grep eth /proc/interrupts if you happen to have /proc support in your
kernel. Short of that verify that your HW works as suggested in (3)

If no irq fires off, then drop the busybox list off.
