I looked thru the network script more accurately to define how the $MODULE is used:

grep MODULE /etc/init.d/network
        MODULE=
        MODULE_OPTS=
                if [ -n "$MODULE" ]; then
                        modprobe $MODULE $MODULE_OPTS > /dev/null

Well, it really leads to error.
Let me suggest the following changes:

--- /etc/init.d/network 2008-01-17 11:13:18.816886600 -0500
+++ /tmp/net    2008-01-17 11:25:25.803589123 -0500

-                       modprobe $MODULE $MODULE_OPTS > /dev/null

+                       else
+                               modprobe $MODULE $MODULE_OPTS > /dev/null
+                       fi
                fi

It should work. I've checked it on my system (DL 1.3) and I shall be vastly
obliged if you verify it on DL 1.2
