Now I have only one problem: the ethernet module. During the

Add the module name on it's own line in /etc/modules.autoload.d/
kernel-2.6
I think that the message Gilberto is seeing indicates that udev or
coldplug or something is already trying to load the 3c59x module - I
don't think that adding its name to /etc/modules.autoload.d/
kernel-2.6 will make any difference.
What does `modprobe -v 3c58x` say?
I'm a bit confused by Gilberto's statement: "Of course I had no
network for this."
If you mean that "I have no networking because of this error" and the
modprobe line above makes no difference then I might be inclined to
swap the network card out for another one.
