Yep, that's pretty much what I did, except I didn't have to

Are you logged in as root or su'd to root as "su -" rather than "su"?
Simple "su" doesn't pick up root's path configuration.

I think the line in modules.conf is just to tell the system to
autoload mpi350 when there is a request for eth1.  That was more
of a step to getting it working automatically after boot rather
than a requirement in the initial manual setup stuff.
