Since the system is remote, I'm not sure how to do that without looking
at the syslogs.

No problem.  I'll see what happens with editing the linuxrc script.

Correction, there was a really stupid error on my part on the VMware
machine, which was resolved when I upgraded -everything- correctly.  I
double checked, and it works on the VMware machine just fine.  I had
forgotten to upgrade all needed RPM's besides kernel.  :|

I made sure I didn't make the same mistake on the production box, but it
still doesn't work.

The box I'm using only has room for one PCI card, which is taken up by
the second NIC.  :\
