I have similar troubles now where the appropriate device driver should be e1000 not 
the e100 that the oscar server is running with. 

I see you added it to modules.conf

but how to rebuild the initrd.img  that resides on the /dev/fd0 ? 

Thanks,
-Bob

 Well, this did the trick (with thanks to Michael Edwards ):
 
 add to /etc/modules.conf
 
 alias eth0 lance
 options eth0 io=0x300 irq=5
