Which drivers are inside the kernel and which ones are modules? Which modules are you loading via /etc/modules and which ones via the kernel auto-loader or hotplug manager? As a general rule, you should use /etc/modules to specify internal devices and allow the hotplug manager to load the drivers for removable devices on an ad-hoc basis. You didn't include a message log from a successful boot, but I'm guessing the via-rhine ethernet card is usually eth0 and the rtl8150 is usually eth1? That might explain some of your other error messages. If you put only the via-rhine driver in /etc/modules (or link it into the kernel) and let hotplug load the rtl8150 driver then the naming sequence will be consistent because the load order will be fixed. -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
