this drove me crazy all night
The machine simply would not take the two NICs
Each of the NICs worked fine individually but when put together........
So, I inserted a PCI 10/100 DEC Tulip NIC and setup redhat with that, this
it
auto detected and setup without any problems.
Then I inserted the ISA 10Mb NE2000 and used modprobe and ifconfig
to set it up as 192.168.0.1
Why the 2 NICs would not work together, Idon't know.
Previous versions of Redhat auto detected these cards but
6.1 does not
This is not a optimal solution but it works
