We would need more informations to find your exact problem.

You can try this on a console :
- use "lsmod" to list the kernel modules loaded 
- use "ifconfig" to see if any card is up
- use "lspci -v" to list the hardware informations (useful with your 3c509 
card(s))

If no network module is loaded, then your /etc/modules.conf file is wrong. 
You could send us your modules.conf file and the result of the above commands.

If one or more network modules are loaded, you should have eth* interfaces 
showing up, even with no IP address. If not try something like "ifconfig eth0 
up", and then "ifconfig" again to check.

You can also comment out every info about network modules and eth* aliases in 
/etc/modules.conf, and use "config-wrapper.pl $$ -g EthernetInterfacesList" 
to try and detect your PCI cards.

In any case give us feedback!

Hope this helps,
Renaud
