bug with rtl8139
Hi
moving stuff from the bench to the shop, I needed to use a smaller
computer case to fit into the space available. The junk box yielded
a suitable case complete with motherboard and NIC.
Turned out that the different NIC (rtl8139) broke the emc
module loading startup script install_rtlinux_base
including the marked phrase fixes this for me.
Although using modprobe instead of insmod would seem simpler at first
glance.
# Install RT-Linux core module, if it is not installed check to see

if ! /sbin/lsmod | grep -v rtl_ | grep -v rtl8139 | grep rtl 1>/dev/null 2> /dev/null ; then
# jrs 25Sep2001 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
# add this above bit in case you have a 8139 nic
if test -f /lib/modules/$rev/misc/rtl.o 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null ; then
echo /sbin/insmod -f /lib/modules/$rev/misc/rtl.o
/sbin/insmod -f /lib/modules/$rev/misc/rtl.o

could someone with CVS access consider adding this?
