That's easy enough, nothing

No drivers, and no host mode, unless you want to replace the kernel and compile your own modules.

I eyeballed the modules dir where the module is that you use to stop the thing being an USB drive when attached to a PC, and there's nothing much there and certainly nothing recognisable as an ethernet driver. Where else might they hang out? Where do they hang out in 2008?
The driver I'm using is actually compiled directly in the OS2008 kernel, I didn't notice that before.. so no module.

In OS2008 modules are in /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/2.6.21-omap1/

You can probably see OS2007 modules in /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/`uname -r`/

I don't really want to up to 2008 quite yet...
Where's your sense of adventure?!

I switched over as soon as that N810 image got out, and have no regrets, but I'm a big fat dork who doesn't mind messing around, compiling things myself, etc.

What's keeping you from the OS2008 beta?
