I've never used Kernel Builder. Is that the `kernelcfg' program?

The file /etc/conf.modules contains the information you need for the modules.
You'll see something like the following:
alias eth0 3c509
options 3c509 io=0x300 irq=10
But unfortunately all ethernet card drivers do not follow the same io/irq
convention.
I really don't know what the reason for it not actually saving the changes may
be, though.
