Anyone have any insight:

I have a 3com etherlink III (3c509b) isa nic in a 486 acting as a 
dns server. I installed redhat 6.0 from a revised cd i made with 
all the updates and security patches. The card wasn't recognized 
during install. After, i did an insmod 3c509.o and the module 
loaded correctly. I did a depmod -a and a modprobe 3c509 after 
removing module and check the /etc/conf.modules as Charles 
suggested. Everything's there. However, after a reboot, the eth0 
interface fails. I have to do a insmod 3c509.o and a 
/etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart and the card's fine. Anyone know 
why it wouldn't work during boot because i don't get any error 
messages when loading the module or restarting the network 
services so....

TIA

jeff
