RH9 Shrike / Kickstart with E1000

I am trying to do a Kickstart install off the network using a RH9 CD, my
computers have dual E1000 NICs which appear to be unsupported.

I've mounted the Shrike boot disk onto a working machine, opened up
initrd.img in the ISOLINUX dir, and within that opened up the modules.cgz
and removed the bad e1000.o and added my working e1000.o and then rebuilt
the modules.cgz, initrd.img and made sure to update pcitable and module-info
with the hardware code found by typing lspci -n on a already installed
working machine.  I create a new ISO and burn, and it still DOES NOT WORK.  

I know the CD works because if I put it in a computer with an E100 nic, it
works just fine and dandy.  

Can anyone suggest what I may be doing incorrectly?
