Richard:
I'll be glad to share what I learn as I go, and I planned on sending
lessons-learned back to the list / primary producers of LEAF.
You pointed me in the right track, but it turned out the 3c589_cs CANNOT
be called from within the /etc/modules.
Instead, the 3c589 driver needs moved to the /lib/modules/pcmcia, then the
pcmcia package backed up. Upon load, the OS automatically loads these
modules, in module-dependent order.
That got eth0 working, at least from the firewall's view.
I'm still checking the eth0 service to make sure I understand what's
available / works there.
Best wishes,

Yes. You can insert the module on a running system with "insmod
3c589_cs"
I'm very interested in your progress on this project, as I'm about to
try something rather similar in the next few weeks.
Good luck!
