Hi Mike, It may not be what you did, but rather the sk98lin drivers being horribly broken, especially with the newer Yukon 88E805X gigabit NICs. I just struggled with a backported version of the sky2 driver in the 2.6.9-34.0.2 kernel and the 88E8055 Yukon NIC (as found on the latest Fujitsu T4210 tablet convertible). Unfortunately, the backported drivers I was sent only go back as far as 2.6.7 for compatibility. John Linville at Red Hat has some 2.4.21-44 test kernels that have slightly newer sky2 drivers: http://people.redhat.com/linville/kernels/rhel3/ I used his RHEL4 test kernels and it worked well, but alas other issues kept me from using it, and I had to backport the driver myself.
