After following the instructions in fqa 8.9.1 about porting to amd64, I found
everything works well except network. It gives
ipconfig: /net/ipifc/clone: bind ether /net/ether0: '/net/ether0' cs: file not
exist
during boot.
However, my netcard works well in original 386 9front. Any solutions?

It is RTL8168. Maybe the driver is not enabled. How to edit kernel config?

the config file for the pc64 kernel is /sys/src/9/pc64/pc64. you just need to
uncomment the line that says '# ether8169 pci ethermii'. you should refer to
https://code.google.com/p/plan9front/wiki/fqa7#7.2_-_Kernel_configuration_and_ma
intenance for information about recompiling the kernel after editing the config
file.

what is the model of the NIC? it may be that the driver is not enabled yet in
the amd64 kernel config, if no one has tested it yet.

the driver for rtl8169 family (including rtl8168) is now enabled by default in
pc64 kernel config. thanks for your bug report and testing.
