Network card configuration problem

[B.Sreemoolanathan]

Hi Don,

	I am having a problem with getting the eth0 interface in the Intel i82557
Etherlink Express card up. I happened to see that you had written the
driver for the card. Please help.

	I was trying to install RedHat Linux 5.0 in a PC with Pentium 200 Mhz.
During install the Linux recognised the card and accepted the IP address.
But once it started running, the eth0 interface is not coming up. 

When I try to configure eth0 using ifconfig it gives the error

	" SIOCSIFFLAGS : Resource temporarily not available"

	Please provide a solution to this.
regs,
Sree.
