Well, i actually did get 3c90x to load.
By entering the following into /etc/modules.conf
alias eth0 3c90x
options 3c90x switchdelay={0,0}
(the second line seems odd considering the drivers readme, which states:
OPTION: switchdelay
Delays the driver initialiation by three seconds to allow slower
switches to respond to the NIC initialization
0 Disabled [ Default ]
1 Enabled
but it works)
and changing the line
Eth0Driver=3c59x
in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/draknet_conf
to
Eth0Driver=3c90x
Not that it'd been of much use, since now the connection just fails
without any error visible error messages...
