I really don't think you should need this anymore. The kernel at some
point was changed to autodetect multiple cards. I haven't given lilo
directives for many years and almost all of my boxen have multiple
functioning eth interfaces. Some have multiples of the same card, others
have different cards.
Does "ifconfig -a" list both interfaces? If so, you're ready to use them.
If not, are the drivers for both cards in the kernel? If they're available
as modules, have the modules been loaded? That one gets me once in a
while.

Shows up with ifconfig. The "I/O ports at xxxx" line from "lspci -v" seems
to match the "Base address:0xxxxx" entry from ifconfig. /proc/ioports also
shows it.
