Nonetheless, that's how you specify which one is 0 and which is 1. Here's a snippet from my /etc/modutils/LOCAL-dman # LinkSys LNE100TX ethernet adapter (hardware revision 2.0) # eth0: Lite-On PNIC-II rev 37 at 0xdc00, 00:A0:CC:35:09:AA, IRQ 11. alias eth0 tulip options eth0 io=0xdc00 irq=11 # LinkSys LNE100TX ethernet adapter (hardware revision 4.1) # eth1: ADMtek Comet rev 17 at 0xde00, 00:04:5A:4F:30:67, IRQ 10. alias eth1 tulip options eth1 io=0xde00 irq=10 I have 2 (PCI) tulip cards, and I specify which IO address refers to eth0 and which refers to eth1. I also specified the interrupt since I had a spare and by default they were sharing the same one. -D -- If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. http://dman.ddts.net/~dman/
