sorry for the insistance but i have to resolve this, your help is valuable:)

i'll use ed1 & ed2 as you recommend, but what should i use when recompiling 
my kernel? i add an entry for the second nic,
the first entry (already in the file GENERIC) is

device ed0 at isa? irq 10 port 300 address 0xd8000

so should i add ed1, or should i change both entries so as to have

device ed1 at isa? irq 10 port 300 address 0xd8000
device ed2 at isa? irq 11 port 280 address 0xd000

for example..


thanks for your help,
oscar
