I recently upgraded from SLS1.02 to pl10 with net-2, and having trouble
with net-2.
I recompiled the kernel with 3c503 driver (GCC2.3.3), which seems to
recognize my 3com card correctly at boot time. However, at this time
I lost every connection to outside (loopback mode only works).
Here's section of my configuration.

MYHOST="128.95.76.68"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
BROADCAST="128.95.76.255"
GATEWAY="128.95.76.100"
NETWORK="128.95.76.0"

/etc/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
/etc/ifconfig eth0 ${MYHOST} netmask ${NETMAST} broadcast ${BROADCAST}
/etc/route add 127.0.0.1
/etc/route add ${MYHOST}
/etc/route add ${NETWORK} #PROBLEM1################
/etc/route add default gw ${GATEWAY}

"ifconfig" lists "lo" and "eth0" as UP and RUNNING, while "route -n"
command lists all my added route as "lo".
Moreover, when I add route like my network (128.95.76.0), it appears
as 128.95.0.0 in routing table.

Could some kind soul help me out of this trouble? I'm almost ready to
give up and go back to SLS1.02 again.
Many thanks in advance for any info.
