I think he is talking about the I/O and IRQ configuration, and that
needs to be in /etc/modprobe.conf because it has to be set when the
driver loads. If I remember correctly, this is an older ISA NIC that
you have to run a DOS setup tool to set the card, and then you have
to tell the driver what you set the card to.
Ah, it has been more than one day since I last used an ISA card. (more
like over 7 years). :)
