November 18, 201312 yr So I am very new to unraid still trying to learn stuff and I am in the middle of a new build. I have installed unraid 5.0.1 on a USb drive and have gotten it to boot fine. However when trying to run ifconfig eth0 I get an error fetching device device not found. I am assuming that I am missing a network driver or something like that but I dont really know what is going on. I am running on an ASRock FM2A88X-ITX+ with an AMD a4 5300 processor. I cannot get a syslog yet to my knowledge so I am relying on a little guidance from the forums. Anyone know what my next step should be?
November 18, 201312 yr Author OK hopefully I did this right here is the syslog i was able to get syslog.txt

November 19, 201312 yr Author eth0 is correct. Sorry yes eth0 is what I am trying and getting the device not found error
November 20, 201312 yr Author OK i let it run for about an hour and then got the syslog which I attached syslog2.txt
November 20, 201312 yr Nov 20 01:52:18 Tower kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck. Nov 20 01:52:18 Tower logger: /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1: eth0 interface does not exist (yet) There is no interface detected. It could be due to corruption of the flash drive filesystem. Run check disk on the flash in a mac or PC.

Run check disk on the flash in a mac or PC. More likely your ethernet chipset is not one currently supported by unRAID (assuming you have a very new motherboard, this is the most likely) You can install a supported network interface card, or send an e-mail to lime-tech with the chipset used and hpe he'll add the driver in a subsequent release of unRAID, or compile a custom kernel on your own with the required driver. Highly unlikely to be a corrupted flash drive. That would prevent you from booting at all. Joe L.
November 21, 201312 yr Author Well I will say that windows actually did show errors on the drive when I plugged it back into windows. I am thinking that Joe L is correct and that my ethernet chipset is not yet supported. Anyway I was able to fix the errors on the drive with windows then I reformatted it and recopied the unRaid files back onto the usb drive. Here is the newest syslog attached below. syslog.txt
November 21, 201312 yr Author After doing some more research I found that my ethernet chipset is Qualcomm Atheros AR8171 which doesn't seem to be supported by unraid at this time. However I was able to find a post where someone got it to work by manually installing the driver I think here http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=29571.0. I am brand new to unRaid and pretty novice when it comes to linux but I am going to try to see if I can follow this post and get it to work.
November 25, 201312 yr Author I was able to get a cheap card at a local computer shop and I have that one up and running good. Hopefully I can get the people of unraid to add support for my onboard NIC but what I have will work for now it seems
January 18, 201412 yr I have the same ASRock motherboard, and I'm using the Linksys LNE100TX NIC that LIME says is compatible. However, I still get no devices when I search ifconfig eth*. Did you have to do anything special with this mobo, or did it auto detect the pci card you installed?
