dual network cards

A newbie at my wits end!! Here is what I did. I installed red hat with
the server option, thus I have no X. I put two Linksys NICs into the
system, but red hat setup did not detect them and set them up. I know they
use tulip.o which is located in my /lib/modules/kernelversion/net
directory. I tried to use linuxconfig from the CL, but to no avail. I even
tried appending lilo.conf after doing a cat /proc/pci to get the IRQ and IO
of the cards. What is the easiest way for one to install network cards from
the CLI when setup does not detect them???? I also tried adding my owng
ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth1 to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts directory but
still no good. Ahhh at least it is good that I have been humbled by this
problem. Thanks in advance.
