Here is the situation Tyan S2466 motherboard with 3Com (3c509c) onboard nic, Intel eepro100 pci nic. RedHat 7.2 XFS. When the machine boots, the intel card comes up fine. The 3com card appears to initialize, can be seen from the box itself, however cannot ping out to anything else, and cannot be pinged from anywhere. If I down and up the card twice, it comes up fine with no more worries. No errors are generated. The same behavior occurs with the default 2.4.9 kernel that comes with 7.2 install, and with the 2.4.18 kernel. Any insights would be most appreciated.
