We could really do with the output from dmesg to confirm how the cards are
being identified.
Also could you do an "ip addr" for the eht0 and eth1 to confirm existence,
ip addresses etc.

I am using three 3com 905 Boomerang nics and am trying to run Bearing
1.0-rc3.  During start-up the cards are detected, however, later in the
start-up, the interface configuration fails.  In looking at the nics
themselves, when a cable modem in plugged into eth0 (setup as net) it
lights up and shows an active connection.  I also plugged a laptop into
eth1 (setup as loc) and the nic did not show an active connection.  To
check to see if the nic was bad I swapped the cards between eth0 and
eth1 with the same results.  I then tired switching the connections
hooking eth0 to the laptop and eth1 to the cable modem.  This time eth1
showed a connection and eth0 did not.  I have edited /etc/modules so
that it loads the 3c59x.o as the driver and double checked the
configuration files against the install guide and user manuals.  In
reading FAQ sec3, "How do I make Leaf see my Ethernet Cards," it makes
mention of the 3com modules being dependent on a module called
pci-scan.o.  However, I have been unable to find a place to download it.

At this point, I'm not sure that this is actually a driver problem but I
can figure out what else it could be.  I can find no information in the
log files. But, it's also possible I am looking in the wrong place.  Any
help you can provide would be greatly appreciated...
