Yesterday I installed Fedora 9 (I was running Fedora 8 before). The machine has two NICs, one is on the motherboard (and is detected fine), the second is a D-Link gigabit card. On Fedora 8 both worked flawlessly. In Fedora 9 they both work fine too, except during boot the second card (the D-Link) does not come up. I have to login and issue "ifup eth1" to get it up.
When I look in /var/log/messages, I see: Jul 4 11:38:08 maxima NetworkManager: <info> starting...
