re: enc28j60 setup
I've made a bit more progress.  The module does work in pCP.  Using
ifconfig I can get the module on the LAN, but only in a limited fashion.
If I add "ifconfig eth0 up" to /opt/bootlocal.sh the link is reported
to be up in dmesg, but it still doesn't work.  The startup reports "No
network found!" and it can't see or be seen on the LAN.  If I make the
command in the script "ifconfig eth0 <ip address> up", the start up
still reports "No network found!", but it is reachable from local
computers at that ip address and it can ssh out to local computers.  It
does not have access to the internet though, so it can't for instance
see the picoreplayer repository.  Clearly it doesn't know who is in
charge of dns and probably lacks other info it would receive if
handshaking had been established properly.

IIUC, ifconfig has no way of initiating a dhcp request to the router. 
What is responsible in pCP for reaching out to the router to request an
IP address with other types of network adapters?

In the standard linux world you could use dhclient and
/etc/network/interfaces to help with the configuration.  How is this
handled in picoreplayer?

Thanks again for your help and patience!
