Comments/Problems:
The correct modconf line was not created for the 8139too NIC driver
module although it was correctly autodetected and used during the
installation. This caused network failure during
base config. This was easilly fixed temporarilly by switching to a
new virtual terminal and running "modprobe 8139too" and
"/etc/init.d/networking restart". To permanently fix the problem
the modconf package was installed, modconf run and the correct
module selected.
Should the modconf package not be installed by default or is that
being replaced by something else?
