How do I force network interfaces to 10 Mps – full duplex?

depends on what network card you have but mii-tool might do it, a few lines from man mii-tool.

Code:

[...]
SYNOPSIS
       mii-tool  [-v,  --verbose]  [-V,  --version]  [-R,  --reset]  [-r,  --restart]  [-w,  --watch]  [-l,  --log]  [-A,  --advertise=media,...]  [-F,
       --force=media] [interface ...]
[...]
-A media,..., --advertise=media,...
              Enable and restart autonegotiation, and advertise only the specified media technologies.  Multiple technologies should  be  separated  by
              commas.  Valid media are 100baseT4, 100baseTx-FD, 100baseTx-HD, 10baseT-FD, and 10baseT-HD.
[...]

so perhaps something like below?
mii-tool -A 10baseTx-FD eth0
