Install the isapnptools package. This will automatically setup scripts in /etc/init.d and symlinks from the proper rc?.d directories. The only symlink on my system (i haven't messed with the configs, so i assume this is the default for isapnptools 1.19-1) is /etc/rcS.d/S15isapnp, which will start it just after the root filesystem is remounted read-write. Modules are typically started from /etc/rcS.d/S20modutils, so by the time it tries installing your network card module isapnp will have been run. -- finger for GPG public key. 29 Nov 1999 - new email address added to gpg key
