Made driver disk w/ drvnet.img, RH9 already installed, now what?

[AmonRa7]

I just made a driver diskette from drvnet.img, but I already have RH9 installed, is there a way I can still apply this driver for my network adapter?

I'm trying to get my linksys nc100 working, RH doesn't even pick it up in the hardware manager. I don't know what to do, and I'm a n00b, so if you do know, please explain carefully and thuroughly.

is this an rpm file or a tar.gz file? what does the network config tool have listed under the hardware tab for your NIC? do you have a cable or DSL connection

Thanks for the reply, I figured it out a little while ago, turns out my NIC was also labeled under a different network adapter name "DEC 21*40 and clones" I chose that and put in my IRQ, I/O/ mem, and set up my dhcp/ip stuff, and it worked out all swell. Thanks for your help.
