You can load the module by using 'modconf' and then edit /etc/network/interfaces and add an entry like: iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 gateway 192.168.1.3
Then use 'ifup eth1' to activate the settings. You can control them with: 'ifconfig' and 'route -n'. Greetz, Sebastiaan
