It is correct if you use different names. I have 2 tulip cards in
this machine :
---------
#
# LinkSys LNE100TX ethernet adapter (hardware revision 2.0)
#
alias eth0 tulip
#
# LinkSys LNE100TX ethernet adapter (hardware revision 4.1)
#
alias eth1 tulip
---------
In this case I have them ordered by location on the PCI bus. It is
conceivable that at some point eth0 and eth1 would be reversed
(physically), and in that case I would RTFM to see how to specify
which one is which (I know it is possible, I've seen it mentioned here
before).
