I installed a Realtek 8029 pci nic and inserted the line:
alias eth1 ne2k-pci
into the /etc/conf.modules file. I do a modprobe eth1 and it detects the
card properly; however, I get no indication at bootup that it is even
looking for eth1. I have read the instructions in the ethernet.HOWTO and I
cannot see anything that I am doing wrong. Does anyone have any ideas?
Mandrake 6.1. Already have a 3c509 ISA card installed that has been working
the whole time.
BTW, I switched eth0 with eth1 and it then detected the card and failed to
detect the 3c509, so it seems that maybe I am missing something in telling
Linux to detect eth1.
Thanks,
