Several solutions:
the fastest solution, do insmod apne, then insmod 8390, then insmod
ariadne2 as root with your current kernel.
Best solution, get yourself the kernel source and apply some patch to apne.c
Hmm, I cant find it on ftp.uni-erlangen now... they appeared on the
linux-m68k list, but this was during Romans holiday. This patch is needed if
you build a kernel where both, ariadne2 and apne are used as module.
If you use ariadne2 built into the kernel, not as a module, it will work.
If you use it as module and dont have apne as module, it will work.
At least it did so for me until we traced down the bug in apne...
Ciao,
Christian.
