Am I right in assuming you are talking about a pci card? As I recall,
Kingston cards use tulip.o, and need a fairly recent version of the module
(no problem on potato, but may need a kernel upgrade on slink).
So ... EXACTLY what you do depends on what you have as eth0, but in general
you plug in the card, let the BIOS's PnP take care of IRQ and IO assignment,
and add the tulip module to the list in /etc/modules (assuming you have
tulip.o available for your kernel).
