What I have found out on my RH6.1 is that autoloading of modules is not
working any more with RTLinux. This is ifconfig eth0 does not load the
driver.  modprobe eth0 does. Must be something related to kerneld
configuration.

And of couse you will need to compile network driver modules ("make modules",
then "make modules_install"). Then do "depmod -a" then "modprobe eth0" then
"/etc/rc.d/init.d/network start"
