I'm currently building a custom image, but while I'm waiting, for the sake of my sanity, I need to make certain I'm doing the right thing. If booting off the standard ext2 kamikaze image doesn't load any network drivers that work with my hardware, I need to build an image of my own right? Or are there some simple files that I just need to copy over?

Hi.
Right, sometimes the required NIC drivers are not included in the image. You can however grab the appropriate kmod packages form downloads.openwrt.org [1], untar them (*.ipk is a renamed *.tgz) and copy the *.ko files over to your installed firmware rootfs.
