is the device aliased to the ipw2200 module?

i.e.  (/etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf )
alias eth0 ipw2200



or you might want to preload the module ahead
of those listed at /etc/modprobe.conf by invoking
the command:

shell> mkinitrd --preload=ipw2200  ........


which creates a ramdisk image w/ a preloaded
ipw2200 driver module.
