Need modified fai-kernels_*_i386.deb

[Terry Gliedt]

I'm having a hard time trying to guess how things work. I have an IBM 
Blade which uses a Tigon ethernet driver. I've compiled this into the 
kernel (not a module), but I don't see this driver being tried, so 
eventually the NFS mount fails and I get a kernel panic.

This must be some magic file that specifies what ethernet drivers to 
try, but if I knew what it was, I've forgotten it. How do I tell the FAI 
kernel what drivers to try?

What am I missing here?  TIA
