Yup. I believe the autoprobing stops after discovering only one card.
You can tell the kernel about the second one by including kernel options
in your lilo.conf, like this:
append="ether=12,0x340,eth1"
A comment in drivers/net/ne.c (in the 2.2.x series) suggests:
/*
* Note that at boot, this probe only picks up one card at a time, even for
* multiple PCI ne2k cards. Use "ether=0,0,eth1" if you have a second PCI
* ne2k card. This keeps things consistent regardless of the bus type of
* the card.
*/
Dunno if this would work for ISA, though.
