You probably want to try loading the if_em.ko module. I recently installed
4.9 on a newer Optiplex machine with an em(4) card and noticed that
sysinstall didn't pick it up right away, so I put if_em.ko on an MSDOS
floppy and loaded it from within the 'post-install options' menu before
installing (somewhat confusing).
