My problem was on a system that had a 3c509 ISA card and a 3c905 PCI card
in it. Before I fixed the problem, what would happen is, if I the 3c509 to
take eth0, then the 3c905 wouldn't initilize. It would just fail. I tried
compiling both in the kernel, both as modules, and one as a module and one
compiled in (with each as both). To this day, I have no idea how it
happened, but all of a sudden it just worked. I think it had something to
do with pump, since it worked after I uninstalled it and installed dhcpcd,
but that is only a theory.
