Almost got LinkSys PCI Card working, but...



> I'm trying to get my new LNE100TX 10/100 ethernet card to work on my
> system but am having problems...

+ Got new drivers to compile for pci-scan.o and tulip.o, I installed the
modules (insmod) then deployed the modules (depmod -a), then initialized the
eth0 adapter ifup eth0 and could ping the machine.
-  I could not find /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0BOOT/net or smp/net to copy new
modules over to (did copy them to /net correctly).
- Could not find /etc/rc.modules file in RedHat Ver 6.2 (did they
consolidate this into another file)?

- added line to the /etc/conf.modules
        alias eth0 tulip (THIS LINE WAS THERE ALREADY)
        options tulip irq=11 options=0 debug=1 (added options and debug)

BOTTOM LINE when I rebooted, card was no longer recognized...ifup was no
longer recognizing eth0. Any suggestions?
