Forget the make load
do a make then a make install
At this time you should find the 3c2000.o in the
/lib/modules/your_kernel/...
If you don't find it the build procedure is not correct.

>>What do you have as problem loading the 3c2000.o into your kernel ?

>>if so you should find 3c2000.o in your /lib/modules/xxx ( for me :

>>If so try to load the module by hand : /sbin/insmod 3c2000
>>Then have a look in your /var/log/messages file. You should see your NIC

>>After this, you should be able to run the netconfig utility to configure

>>after configuration you should see a line like :
>>alias eth0 3c2000

>>Let me know if it's working.
