Trying to use Linksys USB200M Ethernet adapter.
This is a USB device that connects to an Ethernet network.
dmesg reports the USB device insertion, ending with
usb.c: kusbd: /sbin/hotplug add 3
So, I would conclude that the hotplug subsystem "knows" the device is inserted.
lsusb reports:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 077b:2226 Linksys USB200M 100baseTX Adapter
So, I would conclude that the USB subsytem "knows" this is an Ethernet adapter.
lsmod reports:
acm
usb_ohci_pxa27x
...
So, I would conclude that the module subsystem "knows" this is an Ethernet adapter.
However, ifconfig only shows "lo".
What do I need to do to get this Ethernet adapter to work?

It appears this device requires a CONFIG_USB_AX8817X module.
I did not find an AX8817 module under /lib/modules/2.4.20/...
It appears that I will have to back-port and compile the 2.6.0 src/drivers/usb/net/usbnet.c
Can I mount "zgcc-3.4.4.img" and do all the development on the Zaurus?

yes....except for the kernel. the kernel must be built with gcc 2.95.
The easiest way is perhaps to use the pdaxrom builder.
