nice..........
in /etc/modprobe.conf add an entry like this...
alias eth0 e1000
This should work.
otherwise in /etc/rc.local file include the following line .....
modprobe e1000
This probably won't. rc.local is the last thing done in the boot sequence. Services that expect an accessible network interface (like network) will be started before the interface is accessible.
If you must install a module by hand (because it doesn't get installed automatically for some reason), make a script /etc/rc.modules (older RH systems including RHEL4) or /etc/sysconfig/modules/<modulename>.modules (FC4 and later) to insert it. These scripts are invoked eary in the boot process so modules will be available when services need them.
The OP could also try invoking system-config-network. Look at the Hardware tab to make sure the interfaces were detected, then delete any interfaces in the Interfaces tab and recreate them. This should automatically configure /etc/modprobe.conf.

However after reboot, ifconfig -a does not show eth0. How do I configure for e1000 network module to be loaded at every boot?. Please suggest.
