The pxeboot initrds appear to be filesystems...
Anyway - adding the forcedeth driver didn't help - it was already there.
It just doesn't want to work with RHEL4; although the module gets loaded,
the network interface is not seen. That kinda puts a crimp on a cobbler
installation :-(
Time to do some digging...
You can always look at the output of
# modinfo forcedeth.ko
and see if the pci-id you want to support is in the list of supported
devices.
