[ale] 3COM Problem

[bwentdg at pipeline.com]

I am trying to get a 3C900B-TPO working under RedHat LINUX 6.2
When I try to run the "install3c90x" program I get the following:

"Attempting to install the 2.2.14-5.0 version of the 3c90x
driver module.
You are running the 2.2.14-5.0 version of the kernel release...
The 3c90x driver module was not built for this kernel release.
You will need to compile the driver yourself.
Installation of 3c90x driver module failed."


The "compile_UP" worked fine.

I copied the 3c90x.o to   /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/net

I went into /etc/conf.modules and added

    alias eth0 3c90x



I did a insmod 3c90x.o.


Yet when I boot the system I get a message in /var/log/messages


ifup: SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device
ifup: SIOCADDRT: Network is down



Any help you can provide would be appreciated.
