ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Resource temporarily unavailable

I'm trying to configure a Compaq AP400 box with dual 500 MHz Pentium
IIIs with an Intel 82557 EtherPro100. The trouble is that ifconfig
exits with SIOCSIFFLAGS, and I haven't been able to figure out how to
resolve the problem. I'm running Debian slink, kernel 2.0.36. I've
got an entry in /etc/conf.modules like this:
alias eth0 eepro100
When I run modprobe, the card seems to be there. Maybe I have a
conflict with the PnP Sound card in the box? After reading lots of
stuff, this is the only thing that strikes me as a possible problem.
Thanks for any ideas,

Here is the contents of and output from /etc/rc.d/network:
#! /bin/sh
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -net 127.0.0.0
IPADDR=xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
NETMASK=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
NETWORK=xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
BROADCAST=xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
GATEWAY=xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} netmask ${NETMASK} broadcast ${BROADCAST}
route add -net ${NETWORK}
[ "${GATEWAY}" ] && route add default gw ${GATEWAY} metric 1
