Newbie question here ... how do I add a driver to a floppy image?

What I have done so far:

* Read the documentation at
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/buc-install3.html (Not very helpfull).
* Extracted bootdisk.ima from the ISO file.
* Create a new modules.lrp from http://www.ucbering.de/cgi-bin/modules.cgi,
specified my NIC modules (mii and pcnet32 )
* Modified bootdisk.ima, syslinux.cfg and leaf.cfg to load only bare minimum
modules.

What I have so far:

* The floppy image boots fine other than the NIC driver does not load. I see
this on the console:

----- start quote -----
pcnet32 - BusyBox v1.2.1 (2007.03.09-18:28+0000) multi call binary

Usage: insmod [OPTION] ... MODULE [symbol=value]
----- end quote -----

* The output from lsmod lists 'mii' but not 'pcnet32'. If I do a find of
pcnet32 its not there.

* Configuration files.

----- start syslinux.cfg -----
display syslinux.dpy
timeout 0
append reboot=bios
default linux initrd=initrd.lrp init=/linuxrc rw root=/dev/ram0
LEAFCFG=/dev/fd0:msdos boot=/dev/fd0:msdos
----- end syslinux.cfg -----

----- start leaf.cfg -----
LRP="root config etc local modules libm"
PKGPATH=/dev/fd0:msdos
syst_size=8M
log_size=2M
----- start leaf.cfg -----

----- start /etc/modules -----
mii
pcnet32
----- start /etc/modules -----


What I need:

* Having read the documentation at
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/buc-install3.html and not getting anywhere,
I need some help in trying to add pcnet32 to my floppy image.

Thanks.
