I typically do this using /etc/modules.conf.  Most network kernel modules 
support the ability to specify the irq to be associated  with that kernel 
module instance. This is an example entry I use for an old pentium based 
firewall.


[root@uwfw root]# cat /etc/modules.conf
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias eth0 3c503
alias eth1 3c503
options 3c503 io=0x300,0x310


in this case, I didn't need to specify the irq but I did for the io 
address since it was jumpered on the card.  "man modules.conf" is a good 
starting point. The following URL may help also:
