Hi all -- I now have this problem fixed. Eric Spakman suggested I use the /2.4.24/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/tulip.o driver instead. This one doesn't require pci-scan.o, but it does need crc32.o.
I am now happily booting and running the latest bering-uclibc.
Thanks crew!

First let me show my appreciation to the LEAF crew for all your hard work... Thanks everyone! Someday when I retire from the rat-race I hope to contribute.
Now on to my problem...
I have been successfully running various releases of Bering[-uclibc] on an old Gateway 5100 box (100MHz Pentium).
I just upgraded to the latest bering-uclibc 2.1 release and it looks like "insmod tulip.o" is crashing (see the attached dmesg dump below).
This exact same floppy boots up fine in a second identical system. So I am guessing that "rev 37" of the eth1 Macronix chip is causing tulip.c:v0.97 problems.
Note that this same box is successfully running a prior release of Bering-uclibc (Bering firewall 2.4.18 #1 Sun Nov 10 17:40:20 UTC 2002).
Has anyone seen this before? I unfortunately don't have time to install a bering-uclibc development tree and debug from sources... so perhaps my best solution is to replace eth1?
Thanks all, --Stuart
