problem on red hat and probably 3c509 cards.
I had to add something like eth0=... eth1=...
to boot command in lilo.conf.
"..." you have to replace by something reasonable, what you should
find in kernel driver documentation.
The problem occured because the eth card driver is not able to recognize more than 1 card itself, so you have to specify it explicitly.

Hi,
I've got two 3 Com 3C589 pcmcia cards that won't play nice. Each work separately but plugging a second one in when the system is running, which is what i need to do, causes my /var/run/stab to look like this:
Socket 0: 3Com 589 Ethernet 0 network 3c589_cs 0 eth0 Socket 1: 3Com 589 Ethernet
So it looks like cardmgr recognizes the card properly but there is failure somewhere along the line because it is not brought up as eth1 as it should. Perhaps this is a feature or design issue rather than a bug? I really don't know. Reading man pages and google didn't help me solve this. Where should I begin? I want it to brought up as eth1 with a manual configuration of the IP address, netmask, etc.
Thanks,
