Perhaps my last email was too verbose, or so dumb no one feels it needs a
response.  I hope not; I'm legitimately stuck...

I have at least two machines for which there exists a Linux driver for
the ethernet card.

Neither of these ethernet cards is recognized by the BOEL image that is
run initially when doing to network install, so the network install
obviously breaks at that point.

How does one go about adding such things to a BOEL image?  I found an
article by BEF that details how to create the initrd image, but what stuff
in the image needs to be poked to get it to see something new?

The two cards in question are some kind of intel (pci id 8086:1050,
driver=e100 supposedly), and a Marvell Yukon/Galileo GigE adapter
(pci id 11ab:4320, driver=sk98lin).

Help!  If this is such a dumb question that everything I need to know is
contained in some docs somewhere, please point me to those; I'm more than
happy to read the docs if I can find them.
