I have a LX with a Sbus combo SCSI and Ethernet card. I can't get the Redhat
6.2 to recognize the eth1 interface. It shows in the boot sequance, but
fails to initilize. I am runnig headless (pun intended).

Searching Google yields many instances of this problem, but I could not find
a solution. I created a eth1 file in "network-scripts" and used the settings
that I copied from eth0, different IP and subnet, of course.
