If it's detected by the kernel, you can use /sbin/ifconfig.

If it's not detected by the kernel, first you will have to make the kernel
detect it, either by loading a module or by building a custom kernel.

Also see the Ethernet HOWTO.

??

just compile the kernel with the right NICs support,
then add a line to /etc/lilo.conf:

i.e. I have 2 SMC cards on the server, one for the cable modem,
one for the LAN: 
append=ether=3,0x240,eth0 ether=10,0x280,eth1

If you don't know the IRQ or I/O, just replace them by 0.
