Hey man,
I believe that the problem you are facing is not a kernel configuration
problem, but instead a configuration issue with your version of linux.
Even If the kernel finds your nics (check by typing dmesg), you will need to
manually configure each card within linux itself. If you use Redhat, the
files you need to alter are /etc/sysconfig/network and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth*. You may find that in that
directory, you only have *eth0 and *eth1. Simply copy ifcfg-eth1 to
ifcfg-eth2 and edit the file to your new cards settings, then run
/etc/rc.d/init.d/network reload, or manually do it by ifconfig eth2 2.2.2.2
netmask 3.3.3.3 etc.
If its in slackware, you need to edit /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 and add the
appropriate ifconfig (and perhaps route) commands.
On a final note, Im not sure that you really require that line in your
lilo.conf. Ive never needed it.
Hope this helps...

Subject: 3 NIC in linux 2.2.10
Hi,
How to make 3 NIC card work in linux 2.2.10.
I am using linx 2.2.10 with 3 NE2000 ISA card.
The interupt are 5,0X300 , 10,0X340 and 11,0X260,
I put a line in lilo.conf
append="ether=5,0x300,eth0 ether=10,0x340,eth1 ether=11,0x260,eth2"
The kernel detected all the card and the ipaddress being assign to all the
interface card. But i cannot ping the third interface card to any third
interface card network. The NIC card is confirm not faulty. So where goes
wrong?
Thank You
FB
