I mucked around some more.
this time I also updated the pcitable. I don't know if it needs more
entries for the 3c90x driver, I only found one in
/mit/linux/devel/redhat/6.2/anaconda/kudzu/pcitable, which appears to
be where the normal installer pulls info from.
I did not update the modules.dep file. I hope it doesn't depend on
anything... the 3c59x doesn't seem to be listed, so hopefully it's not
a terrible bet.
I also added an entry to modules-info.
I discovered that one cannot leave things lying around in
network/modules. as the mkinitrd snarfs the entire directory
structure.
I got no errors making the images this time, so hopefully it
works. anyhow, if someone can test
/mit/linux/devel/redhat/6.2/trees-3c905/images/bootnet.img, that'd be
neat. pickled or snork might be interesting things to check. (see what
driver it uses for the netcard)
