The init script still tries to load the vmxnet module when it does not exist. And unloads pcnet32 in that case. The ifs in the for loop already trigger return 0 and therefore the check for the module does not make any difference. Attached patch fixes this problem. I separated the two checks in one function each as I think thats a clean way to do it. -- Martin Steigerwald - team(ix) GmbH - http://www.teamix.de gpg: 19E3 8D42 896F D004 08AC A0CA 1E10 C593 0399 AE90
