Fixed.  That's just because distribution I use (KSI Linux) does not
have definitions for ethertap in /etc/conf.modules and does not have a
/etc/modules.d/ (IIRC) for packages.  I didn't knew about one tapX
interface limitation, though.  I shall discuss this with
maintainers...

Seems to me this script will run on any RedHat-based distribution (why 
not?).
