I have recompiled the kernel code 2.4.xx version and rebooted the PC.
It can not detect the 3COM ethernet card, also the pci bridge is not
detected.

Does anyone can help? The make xconfig showes mininum of PCI
configuration.

If I booted using grunb chose the original kernel, everthing is
working and ethernet card can be detected.


Please help

Did you select the 3COM driver from the network->ethernet adpaters
config menu ?

on the regular kernel, type :

modprobe -c eth0 | grep eth0

should yeild the name of the driver you need.

Pick that as a module to be included in your new kernel.

then do
make clean dep bzImage modules modules_install
