Configuring PNP card *before* loading /etc/modules

[Hwei Sheng TEOH <hsteoh@cs.toronto.edu>]

Hi!

I'm running a system with a PNP network card that needs to be up before
/etc/init.d/network executes. I need to execute `isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf'
*before* /etc/modules is read by the kernel (since the network driver cannot
do anything until isapnp configures the network card).

So when is /etc/modules read/executed?? Is it possible to arrange stuff in the
right order so that things happen in exactly this order: (1) isapnp executes,
(2) the network driver module loads (ie. /etc/modules loads);
(3) /etc/init.d/network runs and configures the network.
