Hi,

What is the minimal changes that I need to make to add a non-standard
driver for a PCI (Ethernet) device to the standard RH 5.0 bootdisk?

My own quick guess:

-  Change misc/src/install/pci-probing/{good,map}-eth.lst files.
-  Run "make" in misc/src/install.
-  Replace /sbin/install in initrd.img with the newly generated install.
-  Replace /usr/bin/install2 in supp.img with the newly generated
   install2.
-  Add the driver to /modules in initrd.img.

I'm not sure whether this "algorithm" is complete or fully correct.

Any comments?
