Hi,
My ethernet card is unfortunately being assigned IRQ 19 instead of IRQ 11. My C and kernel knowledge is virtually inexisten, yet I'd like to try and fix that myself, by basically telling my kernel that IRQ 11 is the one to take. I had a look at a driver code (8139too.c) and was under the impression that the assignment of the IRQ is done somewhere else. I'm currently looking at irq.c in the arch\i386\pci\ directory. Is that the right place to attempt this, or should I be looking somewhere else?
Thank you for your help,

It could be your irq line wiring to the IOAPIC, can you try booting with
the 'noapic' kernel parameter?

Thanks, but I've tried this. It didn't work.
