OK, Im trying to run 2.6.0-test6 on top of RH9. I have progress in some areas but not others.
NETWORKING. is a nogo.
If I compile the driver 3c59x as a module, it gets loaded, but with the driver in the kernel or as a module, I get the messages in the messages file (during boot) or when I do a ./network start from /etc/rc.d/init.d

Thats the right address for the ethernet card, and NOTHING else is using it... So what do I need to do? Ill assume that some config file or script needs to be modified, but what/where.
At the same time I see:
