That depends on if it is an ISA or PCI NIC.
For a PCI card just 'device   ed' should work. This probably also works
for Plug-and-Play ISA cards.
For a non-PnP ISA card you do need to specify the port and IRQ bits.

For the original poster:
What does 'ifconfig -a' output?
What is the output of 'dmesg'?
You do have both NICs connected to some other device? (Hub, switch,
computer..)
(The '/kernel: ed0: device timeout' appears for me when the computer on
the other end of the network cable is turned off.)
