RE: Kernel upgrade 2.4.18-14 -> 2.4.23 (rh8)

I suspect there is a bcmxxxx.o under your old kernel
(lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/drivers/net/).

I would try copying this to your new kernel,
then try

/sbin/insmod bcmxxxx

If not, suspect you need to get the latest driver
from Broadcom.

I just recompiled a new kernel, from 2.4.18-14 -> 2.4.23.
I copied the old config from
/boot/config-2.4.18-14 to /usr/src/linux-2.4.23/.config

the did
make mrproper
make menuconfig (I read that this must be done on RH)
make clean
make dep
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
make install

It all built great, but when I reboot it doesn't recongise the ethernet
cards any more

before with old kernel

Dec  5 10:07:56 ifup: bcm5700 device does not seem to be present, delaying

Can anyone give me some ideas ?

Thanks
