I believe so.  I'm having to type this, so I might make a mistake, but I think these are the important lines (leaving off the date/time cardmgr[357] bits):

socket 0: NE2000 Compatible Ethernet
executing: "modprobe 8390"
+ insmod: 8390.o: no module by that name found
modprobe exited with status 1
module /modules/net/8390.o not available
executing: "modprobe pcnet_cs"
+ insmod: pcnet_cs.o: no module by that name found
modprobe exited with status 1
module /modules/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o not available

I found the pcnet_cs.o file, it is on the PCMCIA disk, but it appears that the script is looking in the ram disk, not on the PCMCIA disk.  I couldn't find the 8390.o file, but that doesn't mean it isn't there.

Maybe this is the clue needed?

Thanks for all the help so far,
  Jeff.
