Remviong Network Card Drivers?

[Matt Funke]

I'm trying to get FAI up and running, but am hitting this boot error
when I run faireboot:

Begin: Mounting root file system... ...
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

The fai-guide (4.9.1) says that this could be because of a missing
driver.  Can I tell FAI to just *not look for* a network card (or other
things it might want)?  It doesn't seem right that we might *have to
have* certain things, or else it will just die for some reason.

Thanks for any help you might be able to offer.
