Add your board, get a driver to load, ifconfig to set up networking, then route command. There are ethernet/networking HOWTO's that can help. Traditionally the config info is stored in places like /etc/sysconfig/networking, then a startup script reads it and does the work: look in /etc/inittab which calls a startup script like init.d/rcS to do some of this work. That's probably the hard way to do it too, grab a RH6.2 book and look in the network section should help.
