How to configure an additional 3com network card

Follow the intranet setup but change eth0:1 to eth1 in /etc/network/interfaces
First run 'modprobe 3c59x', then 'ifconfig'. If there is no 3c59x module then you need to go into the kernel to set it up
cd into kernel-source directory (usually /usr/src/linux or /usr/src/kernel-source...)
run 'make menuconfig'
Select 'Network device support'
Select 'Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)'
Select '3COM cards' then choose the correct module and set to ''
Exit out and 'save your new kernel configuration'
run 'make bzlilo'
run 'make modules'
run 'make modules_install'
If you don't want to have to type in 'modprobe 3c59x [or_whatever_your_module_name]' every time you boot up....you need to add the module to /etc/modules. Just add [module_name] to it's own line.
You should be good. Not sure if you need to reboot or stop/start /etc/init.d/networking. Run ifconfig to see if it came up.
