How do I make the new image load my nic mods on boot up? ok. Just to make things easy I only upgraded from 2.2.29pre-17-compact to 2.2.19. Everything was painless except that on boot up the drivers for my 3com nic cards don't automatically load as they did with ...pre17-compact. I sort of assume they load from a file in /etc/init.d/ Searching google I get the idea that kerneld is the script that loads them but looking at the script I don't really see how it would load them from the compact image and not the 2.2.19 image.
I know I could put a script in there telling them to load, but I would like to find out the right way of course On Thu, Sep 20, 2001 at 06:42:36AM -0700, D.
