I'm teaching myself about ethernet cards, and found a TLDP page. I have CentOS 5.3.
In this section: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO-2.html#ss2.4 in the 'Driver as module' subsection, regarding PCI cards, it states that there should be a directory "/lib/modules/`uname -r`/net"
There's no 'net' directory. I am guessing that the NIC drivers are modules (and not compiled into the kernel) - am I wrong? Or, where are the modules?
Look in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/ for network kernel modules.
