Hello,
I have the same problem in a 386SX with linux 2.4.20 with two Etherlink
III cards.
I send a mail to the maintainer of the card's driver and hi told me that 
is a kernel problem, not the driver. Something with the bootup time... I 
really not remember now.
Wen I Compile the kernel with the drivers has modules it works just 
fine. But inside the kernel only works one card or none one.

Later happened again in a linux 2.4.22 on a PIII machine.
This time with a 3Com 3C905C Fast Etherlink card and one EEPRO100 i believe.
Same problem. the 3Com driver doesn't work compiled in the kernel with 
other card on the box. If the card is alone it works. but with other one no.

Make modules && make modules_install was the solution for me.
If u find something more about this issue please let my know.

Best Regards!
Matías.
