Cool.  Thanks a lot.  Even my conf.modules was wrong because I had =
manually entered natsemi.o into linuxconf instead of just natsemi.   I =
changed conf.modules, and by the time I went back into linuxconf, it had =
already dropped the .o suffix and was able to complete its mission.  =
Unfortunately, the network is still unreachable (says ping), but I'll =
work on this a while myself before I ask for more help.
