Actually, the e1000 driver tarballs include spec files that will create some very clean RPMs. Just run "rpmbuild -tb <driver tarball>", install the freshly produced RPM, and it should handle all of the above steps for you.
OK, I'll give that a try next week when I'm back in the office. Just to make sure, installing the new RPM will not cause any problems down the road? The original e1000 driver kernel module is part of the kernel RPM -- will there be any warnings or errors if I try to uninstall an older kernel RPM at a later date?
