Hello. Same situation: i have Celeron workstation with 2 eth cards: old ISA D-Link-250CT and DEC Tulip 21140-AC. All works fine with kernel 2.0.38 but after compiling, installing and booting 2.2.14 i always get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: resource temporarily unavailable" for every line with route add command in /etc/init.d/network script.
