I used this and works fine for me......

That's somthing you'll have to wait and watch (I guess;-)
this process that gets the module loading routine working as it should be? I think there was a reference to modules.dep or maybe modules.conf in that message I saw during dist-upgrade. But there was definitely nothing there telling me how I could manually start the process that couldn't finish during dist-upgrade. Any pointers, please?

PS Most of the above refers to having booted using the new kernel (2.6.6,
though some of those boots were with the old 2.6.5 kernel and one was even
with the 2.4.22 kernel). None of those were able to use eth0 and gave the
same error message during the boot process.
possibly modules .conf was to be written on bootup or something....?.
