Thanks anyway but I have just answered my own question.

The lilo options (which I setup incorrectly anyways) is only for a
compiled kernel without modules. If you use modules you need to add some
information to the modules.conf file.

And the correct lines are:

             alias eth0 ne
             alias eth1 ne      
             options ne io=0x220,0x240

If this is incorrect please feel free to correct me...

cheers

Adam.
