Problem with multiple 3C509 enet cards.

First of all, thanks for the help with the SCSI problem. I haven't
tried to fix it yet, but I will. Second, sorry if this is the wrong
location to ask this question. Feel free to point me somewhere else
if appropriate.

On to the question. We are trying to set up a machine with two 3C509
cards. We used the DOS utility to set them to different ports and
interrupts, and we disabled the plug and play support. We also have
Donald Becker's linux configure tool, and tried it too.
Unfortunately, we have yet to get both cards to be recognized at
startup. Inevitably, one of them will be ignored. We also noticed
that a status light on one of the boards goes out during the boot
process.
