my rc.inter1.conf READS:
# /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
#
# This file contains the configuration settings for network interfaces.
# If USE_DHCP[interface] is set to "yes", this overrides any other sett$
# If you don't have an interface, leave the settings null ("").
# Config information for eth0:
IPADDR[0]=""

# Change this to "yes" for debugging output to stdout. Unfortunately,

DEBUG_ETH_UP="yes"
Well, if you put the modprobe inside the /etc/rc.d/rc.modules file, it should get executed at bootup time (which should be root by default). Are you saying that you put the line in your rc.modules, rebooted your PC, and it didn't load during the boot process?
