You gave me an idea: i think it's related to fact, that those modules
expect to be linked into kernel (they complain about basic kernel
symbols too). But how to make sure?? - not risking to render board unusable?
If you find a method (maybe trying to link a non network-critical module
into kernel, like ipsec), please provide step-by-step instructions to me.

You THINK or you KNOW? (in case of 8186!)

I will, but on my board there is 8186, not 8181. And very beginning of
bootstrap, in bootloader i can see no option of TFTP (see atached file).
