That particular string is there in modules.alias on RHEL 5.3 and the e1000e driver seems to have that as well inside itself...
So one wonders what the problem is... Do other operating systems work with it? Have you tried an installation of Fedora 9 or 10? Or even another distribution altogether, or Windows? Might be worth confirming that it's the OS that's at fault...


I got the Fedora 11 beta installed with pxe without any troubles. Further troubleshooting with RHEL 5.3 seems to indicate that the driver/chip behaves funnily if one has "spanning-tree porfast" enabled on PXE ports. The other side is a Catalyst 2960G running 12.2(50)SE. Disabling portfast makes things work during the RHEL 5.3 install while Fedora 11 did get installed even with it enabled.
