When you can do it manually but not at boot time, you are usually missing 
a dependency or two (things that haven't loaded by the time the interface 
is being brought up). Usually, in this case, you can bump the interface 
activation down the line a little (requires some editing of symlinks in 
/etc/rc.d).

I have a 3c905B PCI NIC (good card). I have support for it built into the 
kernel (I like to build as much into the kernel as possible to reduce some 
overhead and modules get a little confusing to load and whatnot). Like all 
PCI cards, its settings are set in BIOS (IRQ and whatnot) and when the 
kernel loads, it probes the card for everything else. One.. Two.. Three :)
