If your network is coming up active after a dhcpcd eth0, then it looks
like all that you have to do now is to edit /etc/conf.d/net script.
With your favorite editor modify the following line so that it is not
commented.
iface_eth0="dhcp"
Save and close the file and then add net.eth0 to the default runlevel by
running as root;
rc-update add net.eth0 default
If you also want sshd to start at boot time you can do this by adding it
to the default runlevel as well by;
rc-update add sshd default
I hope that this helps you out,
Barry

My guess is I don't have the proper drivers loading at boot time, just a
guess. So I went into the kernel looking for the correct NIC to select:
