changing the pci table is fairly straightforward.
IIRC we want to add a line for the 3c90x and change 2 others to
it. we can diff to the old copy, to double check the changes.

now that I've done this a couple times, it's easy. even more so, since
we don't have space constraints, and can just add the driver. where is
the relevent modules.cgz file? I'll add it.
however, I'm not convinced it's going to be as simple as though 2
changes... I'm torn between wanting to make the install DTRT and be
clean, and wanting to not touch RH's crap, and just include an errata.
