Hi, Tes, we had a lot of trouble. However the 164.15.1.el5 OS worked fine when we installed a 8139too network pci card, and did the configure using "with-8139too-kernel" option.
However, the 186 kernel only seems to compile using "--enable-8139too" option.

I tried to compile using the kernel provided and the compilation failed. The machine I am using it on is running kernel 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5PAE #1 SMP I would like to use the EtherCAT master with either the generic module or the e1000 I remember part of the module compilation failing because of a macro "for_each_netdev" which may have been introduced in newer kernels.
