Hi,

I have a eepro100 network card.
In /etc/rc.local i put modprobe eepro100
in /etc/modules.conf i put alias eth0 eepro100

The module is no loaded at boot time.
If i enter the command in the shell : modprobe eepro100 everything works.

Why is these files are not executed?

Guys, i need to ship the system in 3 hours.

This has to be fixed. Im im desepêrate for any help..

Long live Linux!!
Thank you very much

In /etc/modules.conf i put modprobe eepro100
in /etc/rc.local i put alias eth0 eepro100

These are reversed !!

modprobe should be in rc.local and alias in modules.conf
