these messages are normal because the kernel scans all devices and try's to
detect some network cards but if you have only one it just detects eth0

[newbie] modprobe eth while no nic present

2002-10-01 Thread L.V.Gandhi 

My /etc/modules.conf is as follows
alias usb-interface usb-uhci
alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio
probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
options i810fb xres=800 hsync1=32 hsync2=48 vsync1=50 vsync2=70 vram=2 bpp=16 
accel=1 mtrr=1 hwcur=
1 xcon=4

# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
options i2c-corei2c_debug=1
options i2c-algo-bitbit_test=1


alias char-major-81 bttv
options bttvcard=50
options tuner   debug=1 type=5 pal=b

But while booting I get these messages. 
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth1
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth2
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth3
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth4
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth5
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth6
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth7
Oct  1 06:58:37 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module eth8

I don't have any nic. While configuring also, only dialup with modem was 
automatically identified and configured by me. Why these messages occur? How 
to stop it?
