If you just need a new module, you can add that to the ramdisk. There's
a "my_modules" path in there to put it in and an INSMOD_COMMANDS file to
add the required commands to load it. If a new kernel is required, the
existing one would just need to be replaced. 

Have you tried the SIS kernel and found that it fails? If its just the
module its a fairly simple patch, but changing the kernel gets more
complex. Please let us know the results, the SI guys can include the
driver for this adapter in future kernels if it is available.
