Network devices broken in SLES10 SP2 Patch?

Hi,

I *was* pleased to see that Novell released an updated boot CD yesterday
(SLES10 SP2 Patch). However, I can't get it to admit that I have a
network card. I get the blue Linuxrc screen, with a red dialog that
says 'No network device found. Load a network module first.'.

This is on 3 different machines, all of which I have had luck with
before. I did not even bother trying the dell 755 that I had been
hoping would work.

Am I the only one seeing this? The motherboards in question are all
common desktop boards from Intel. Models d945gcz, dq965gf, and dg35ec.

Any help or comments appreciated,

Trevor
