cron should be the last thing that's started, before the
login prompt is 
displayed. Might you, by any chance be using the
configdb.lrp for a 
system with a serial console (that would mean you renamed
configdb.ser 
to congfigds.lrp on the boot media)?
The sysliux.cfg you posted is for a system with a
"real" keyboard and 
display, but the that symptom is exactly what happens when
there is no 
tty defined in /etc/inittab - which would be the case, if
you renamed 
configdb.ser to configdb.lrp on the boot media).

In short, if you have a real keyborad and display attached
to your box, 
make sure you have no "configdb.lrp" lying around
on the boot media (yet 
- it will re-appear, as soon as you change something on the
box and then 
save the config).

you'll need the modules for the NIC for sure (put them into
/lib/modules 
if they're not already in the default moddb package and then
back up 
moddb) and declare them in /etc/modules (and then save the
config).

I don't know what a "map" might be regarding
/lib/modules - /lib/modules 
is a directory, that the module files reside in.

Regarding what to do with /etc/modules - just open it in a
text editor - 
there should be plenty of helpful comments in that file.

The usual procedure is
* copy xxx.o to /lib/modules
* add "xxx" to /etc/modules
* save moddb (start lrcfg and the hit "m")
* save config (start lrcfg and hit "s")
