i suggest doing it manually, i remember having a problem with corel's GUI and multiple ethernet interfaces, edit /etc/init.d/network manually, or see my previous mail, and put the line you use (once it is tested) in that script, and another line for eth1. as far as i know you cannot have 2 network cards on the same network at the same time using most of the drivers. so make sure eth1 is on another network.

According to dmesg both cards were assigned properly, ther's just a line for each assigning eth0 and eth1 respectively (can't include as it's not on the network, and there's no floppy drive). However, ifconfig shows no eth0 or eth1. chris >What do I have to do to get these cards installed now? chris >Thanks for all your patience, guys. chris > chris >Chris Mason chris >Box 340, The Valley, Anguilla, British West Indies chris >Tel: 264 497 5670 Fax: 264 497 8463 chris >USA Fax (561) 382-7771 chris >Take a virtual tour of the island chris >http://net.ai/ The Anguilla Guide chris >Find out more about NetConcepts chris >www.netconcepts.ai chris >bwz*mq chris > chris >-----Original Message----- chris >From: aphro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] chris >Sent: Tuesday, April 04, 2000 7:43 PM chris >To: Chris Mason chris >Cc: Debian-User; recipient.list.not.shown:; chris >Subject: Re: two card clash chris > chris > chris >it would be helpful if you included output from dmesg, and also did you chris >try to insmod the rtl8139 module manually ? if it loads(with or without chris >errors) run dmesg again and see what the kernel says. chris > chris >i have run dual 3com 3c905s and dual rtl8139s with no trouble. there is chris >the matter of the PCI bus, if you are installing a 2nd card after the chris >system is configured and it is in a lower pci slot, the system would chris >detect it first making the 2nd card eth0, but thats not a linux problem(in chris >my opinion) chris > chris >nate chris > chris >On Tue, 4 Apr 2000, Chris Mason wrote: chris > chris >chris >Corel Linux - Intel box chris >chris >I installed the OS with one rtl8139 netowrk card in it, the OS found the card and loaded the right module which was assigned in the /etc/conf.modules file.
