Hi,
I have a peculiar problem that I can't solve by my own. I have a server installed rhes es4.2. After a power problem machine got rebooted. After that e1000 eth module can't get loaded automaticly which was getting loaded perfectly before without any problem. I have no idea why that happens and want to ask why that might be. And will be glad if you show help me about this problem.
Best Regards.
What I have found that nearly all modules that get loaded aren't loaded now.. (Most of them network drivers).. Thanks that at least scsi controller driver gets loaded ..

I noticed if you need a driver disk to load a module for something else, my e1000 would not recognize either. Once I used the correct driver disk, all other modules loaded flawlessly. I don't know if this applies to you or not.
I think on power outage one of the files deleted by the fsck. I want to ask which file or startup script loads ethernet and other networking modules (such as iptables). I have manually edited /etc/rc.d/init.d/network to load e1000 driver from /lib/modules/KERNEL-VERS/kernel/drivers/net/e1000/e1000.ko which is obviously not a good thing to do but solved my problem for a while. At least until I debug the problem.
Your situation I think all different than mine. But thanks .

It seems that rc.sysinit finds out which module to load using kmodule commands output. But it that NETWORK e1000 doesn't get loaded as module:
Maybe defining e1000 explicitly (network="e1000" in rc.sysinit) solves the problem which I can't risk since it is a remote system:
Below is a snippet from rc.sysinit
echo -n $"Initializing hardware... "
ide="" scsi="" network="" audio="" other="" eval `kmodule | while read devtype mod ; do case "$devtype" in "IDE") ide="$ide $mod" echo "ide="$ide"";; "SCSI") scsi="$scsi $mod" echo "scsi="$scsi"";; "NETWORK") network="$network $mod" echo "network="$network"";; "AUDIO") audio="$audio $mod" echo "audio="$audio"";; *) other="$other $mod" echo "other="$other"";; esac done`

the file is /etc/modprobe.conf
The module is there as alias eth0 e1000 but it doesn't get loaded. It is very peculiar. I will inform list if I find what is makes this happen. By the way module can also get loaded explicitly adding network="e1000" line to rc.sysinit
