This just happened to a guy on our local LUG list. It was an I/O or interrupt port conflict. He just changed the setting by adding this line in /etc/lilo.conf:
append="ether=IRQ,I/O" where IRQ and I/O are your settings. If you run: cat /proc/ioports cat /proc/interrupts You ought to be able to confirm this is the problem; then go from there.
