Don you will need to add the module to /etc/conf.modules.
On my systems I have the following entry for a tulip card:
alias eth0 tulip
you can also add option for irq address etc if need be.
Seems like the module howto got me going. a search of this list archive will
probably return more info as well.
Hope this helps.
