If it's pnp, it must be setup with isapnp.conf. If it's PCI it's automatically found. Then you must set the card up with options in /etc/conf.modules or build it into your kernel. For eth0 you should have a couple of lines like: alias eth0 ne options ne irq=* i/o=* You should have similar entries for eth1, alias eth1 ne2k-pci options ne2k-pci irq=* i/o=* You substitute your card modules and irq and i/o info. Once you do that the cards will be found, and you can assign them addresses. If the cards are identical, I think you only need one option line and you put commas between values.
