I've got a setup thusly:
in an older compaq deskpro
pcmcia - isa adapter card
with orinoco pc card
on board nic
two intel eepro100 cards
one 3c509 isa card
after an install of psyche they are configured in this manner
device name driver bus
--------------------------------------------
eth0 tlan onboard (pci)
eth1 eepro100 pci
eth2 eepro100 pci
eth3 3c509 isa
eth4 orinoco_cs isa
I'm trying to find out if I can force the device names to be some other
than the above. For example, when I try to shoe horn eth1 to be the tlan
adapter the interface will fail to startup. During this experiment, only
one entry exists in /etc/modules.conf
alias eth1 tlan
and only ifcfg-eth1 exists under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ and I
have run "depmod -a"
The tlan module get loaded but ifup reports that the device does not
exist. How does the mapping between device name and module get created?
