If you dont need eth1 then dont use it, simply down it via ifconfig, i cant say much more as you failed to say what distro you use, most possably answer would be. edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local and place the following; /sbin/ifconfig eth1 down rmmod See you did not even say what sort of card it is so module is unknown to me.!!
