(A) If ne is already compiled in the kernel, the lilo append parameter should look like this: append ="ether=12,0x280,eth0 ether=15,0x240,eth1" Of course, adjust for your values. The "0,0, eth1" lable assumes that the card is detectable and more than likely, you need two of those. If you wish to try your luck with autodetect, please verify the "0,0,eth1" syntax which is explained in /usr/doc/HOWTO/mini/Multiple-Ethernet.gz ): (B) If ne is loaded as module, then use this alias in /etc/modules : ne io=0x240,0x280 irq=15,12 Please refrain using both methods at the same time. One method precludes the other, there should be no need to pass both the append to lilo and the alias in /etc/modules. I remember having problems detecting the second card when I tried to notify the kernel in more than one way at once. -- Ioannis Tambouras [EMAIL PROTECTED], West Palm Beach, Florida Signed pgp-key on key server. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
