Hi,
Found the answer following the link from Donald Becker's network card
drivers for Linux web page to Paul Gortmaker's NE2000-PCI page. Here is
the gist of it.
I am running 2.0.32 updated kernel (RedHat Linux 4.2) and STILL getting
the wrongly worded message, as the answer below indicates this wrong
wording of the message was fixed with a patch in kernel 2.0.30!
=============
Question:
I use the module version of your update, and it loads and appears to
be working fine, but I get this funny message `loading device eth1'
that I didn't get before. I only have the one card, which is eth0. Is
this a problem?
Answer:
No, you can ignore it. It should read `probing for device eth1'
instead. Since PCI probes are completely safe, the module probes to
see if you have a second, third or fourth PCI ne2000 card installed.
The v2.0.30 version of the patch actually makes this wording change
for you.
=============
