RE: installing two NIC's
I found that the easiest thing was to run dmesg and see if the OS tried to load the modules for the cards. You may have loaded both cards but you haven't setup ifconfig for eth1.
Look at dmesg.

you can look at the currently loaded modules with lsmod, if ne2k-pci
isn´t there yet, ´insmod ne2k-pci´ will (try to) load it. You should
then see it via ifconfig, if you don´t, try ´ifconfig -a´. ´ifconfig
eth1 x.x.x.x/xx up´ will set the ip-address and netmask.
if this works, all you have to do is put ne2k-pci in /etc/modules
to get the module loaded at boot time, and edit /etc/init.d/network
accordingly to the appropriate ip-addresses.
