I would try swapping (reversing) the cards locations on the bus. I don't know for sure if this is the fix for these net cards, but just resolved a boot lock-up problem with 2 Intel Pro/10 ISA cards with this technique in a recycled Packard Bell Legend 100CD.

Hello, After installing a 2nd NIC (Intel Pro/100 S) and booting up, the OS sees the 2nd NIC but it also states that media NONE status NO CARRIER for the first NIC (fxp0). Doing an ifconfig fxp0 down and then ifconfig fxp0 inet xx.xx.xx.xx with the correct netmask up, does not help. dmsg shows both NIC's as the same in terms of driver 10/100/100+ Anyone ever experienced such a situation and know why it's doing this?
