Try this: Generate a file in '/etc/modutils' (name it for example 'nic')
containing the lines
alias nic1 ne
alias nic2 ne
alias nic3 ne
options nic1 io=0x320 irq=9
options nic2 io=0x200 irq=3
options nic3 io=0x280 irq=15
Generate the final '/etc/modules.conf' file with 'update-modules', then do
a 'depmod -a'.
After that 'modprobe nic1 nic2 nic3' should load the modules...
(but I'm not quite sure, wether the 'options' line work as I think, but
try it)
