Sorry for the direct email, I'm not subscribed to the list.

Something broke with modprobe in going from 1.00-pre10 to 1.00-rc1

My /etc/rc script fails when it tries to perform an NFS mount.

The reason it's failing is that the nfs kernel module isn't getting
loaded.  Also, somewhere during the startup, a bizarre module called
"kaweth" is getting loaded.

I swapped modprobe.c back to 1.00-pre10 and it works correctly again.
Looks like whoever changed modprobe introduced a bug.
