[eepro100] Multiple eepro100 cards: specific order

[Graham Wooden]

Well,
It depends on what the BIOS sees your on-board NIC as, what number is it on
the PCI bus.
>From what you are stating, sounds like your BIOS is seeing the on-board NIC
as id 6, and the PCI card slots as 0-5, or what ever the slot count is.

Check your BIOS settings to see if you can renumber the on-board NIC.
Is eepro100 compiled in or is it a module?

I hope this helps. Take care!

Okay... is there any way to get the PCI bus to scan in a different order?
