Well, it turns out that I have to tell the kernel (or whatever) exactly where
to find the module (as in,
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.10/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o). I don't understand
exactly why that is, since I built the kernel from source. The kernel should
know where to find its modules. How can I get the kernel to find the right
modules at boot time?
Yeah! One problem solved (my ISA ethernet finally works) and another begins...
