Shamus,
If you're seeing that rc.modules is read only, you do not have a unionfs
partition (which you will need to make changes to that file).
You can try:
modprobe r8169
To see if that is in-fact, the correct module for that board (I'm pretty sure
it is since I have one of the Jetway with a C7).
Also, to be clear, the new runnix-4 files are not usable with the 0.7.x branch
at all. The 1.0.x branch needs a new version of runnix because the version of
squashfs changed (and is not backwards compatible).

Subject: Re: [Astlinux-users] new installation from Mac OSX Lion
I was able to go and purchase a different 4GB CF card yesterday and tried
again--same result. This got me thinking that maybe my motherboard was having
some sort of other issue with the current release. I downloaded AstLinux 0.7.7
(prior to current RUNNIX release) and tried again... this time, success! I
think the culprit is RUNNIX, but have no way to be certain at this point.
That being said, I've run into a new problem. My motherboard uses a RealTek
chip for the GigE ports (Jetway mini-ITX board based on VIA C7). Using the VIA
C7 image, the Ethernet ports are not initialized. Logging in from the CLI, I
see that R8169 is commented out in /etc/rc.modules, but when I try to uncomment
I get an error saying the file is read-only.
Two questions:
1. Are the R8169 drivers included in the VIA C7 image?
2. If so, how do I got about modifying files so that the correct drivers are
modprobed?
many thanks,
Shamus
