Sorry, I should have read your email more closely. You did say "How do I get the eexpress module to recognize both cards and set the first to eth0 and the second to eth1?" Using append= in lilo would only apply if the devices you're trying to configure are compiled into the kernel, not as a module. Since you are using a module you need to edit /etc/conf.modules (or put a file in /etc/modutils/ and then running update-modules if you're running slink or higher) and add the line:
options eexpress io=0x300,0x240 irq=11,10 (I'm pretty sure the above sytax is correct but if someone else knows better please speak up.)
