[driverloader] adapter presents MAC address with lower case letters, driverload expects uppercase

[root]

I just installed my Broadcom Wireless adapter under Fedora core 3, and
had it working great. I reboot and driverloader complains about an
unexpected mac address 

Feb 26 15:49:34 sam network: Bringing up interface eth0:  succeeded 
Feb 26 15:49:34 sam ifup: Device eth1 has different MAC address than
expected, ignoring. 

so the driver is not loaded..

How can I resolve this?
