I was able to load the new eepro100.o module by running: rmmod eepro100 - to unload the old version insmod pci-scan.o insmod eepro100.o In my conf.modules file there are: alias eth0 eepro100 alias eth1 eepro100 How can I ensure that when I reboot, the pci-scan module will be loaded prior to the eepro100 module? Thanks.
