Description Tames McTigue 2004-02-19 22:50:19 UTC

Using the x86 LiveCD's, I can't "modprobe sk98lin" for my Linksys EG1032.  If I use the AMD64 LiveCD or a Knoppix CD the module loads perfect and the card works.  I will post the exact error message if needed (I'm installing using the Knoppix CD right now).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Boot from x86 LiveCD
2."modprobe sk98lin"
3.Gives an error message and does not load module
Actual Results:  
The module would not load and I could not continue with installation. 

Expected Results:  
Load the module.

cdimage root # modprobe sk98lin
No adapter found.
/lib/modules/2.4.21-gss/kernel/drivers/net/sk98lin/sk98lin.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
      You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

Works fine on the new 2004.0 LiveCD.
