Hello,
Thank you for your help.
I have tried modconf as suggested, below is the error that came up,
Installing module eepro100. If the device isn't there, or isn't configured
correctly,
this could cause your system to pause for up to a minute.
Warning: /lib/modules/2.2.20-idepci/net/eepro100.o symbol for parameter
debug
not found
/lib/modules/2.2.20-idepci/net/eepro100.o: init_module: Device or resource
busy
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.2.20-idepci/net/eepro100.o: insmod

/lib/modules/2.2.20-idepci/net/eepro100.o: insmod eepro100 failed
Installation failed.
To be more specific the e100 NIC is on board. My board is Intel D845G
chipset.
The onboard NIC works fine under NT2000, and is listed as
Intel (R) PRO/100 VE PCI bus 2, device 8, function 0
Memory Range FEAFF000 - FEAFFFFF
I/O Range DC00 - DC3F
IRQ 20
Could anyone suggest how can I get the eepro100 module working on this
board.
Perhaps there are some optional params that I should specify when loading
the module?
I know I can specify IRQ and IO, which I tried unsuccessfully, but I am
unsure of the correct syntax for bus number or device number.
Regards
MarkZ
For example "modinfo -a eepro100" will return:
Maintainer: Andrey V. Savochkin <saw@saw.sw.com.sg>
and "modinfo -d eepro100" will return a description:
Intel i82557/i82558 PCI EtherExpressPro driver
and more important "modinfo -p eepro100" will return this list:
debug int
options int array (min = 1, max = 8)
full_duplex int array (min = 1, max = 8)
congenb int
txfifo int
rxfifo int
txdmacount int
rxdmacount int
rx_copybreak int
max_interrupt_work int
multicast_filter_limit int
