This is the Red Hat 7.0 bug.  See
    http://www.scyld.com/network/updates.html#redhat7.0

You can likely work around this by getting the source RPM
   ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/network/netdriver-2.1.src.rpm

As a special case, a precompiled RPM for Red Hat 7.0 running the x86
uniprocessor kernel may be installed by running
    rpm -i ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/network/netdrivers-rh70.i386.rpm
