I see the list has been really overworked...
It's a long time and I hope you've found the reason yet.
If not, here are some hints:
- is eth0 shown in /proc e.g. in /proc/interrupts?
- is ifconfig -a returning something?
- can you try ip (from iproute package) e.g. ip link set eth0 up
- do you have the same net options enabled as in this distro:
e.g. CONFIG_PACKET?
- maybe you can try to figure something after (as root):
strace ifconfig eth0 up
or send the output here...
