Picking up this thread from a couple of months ago...

I have just re-installed YDL CS 1.2 on my PowerCenterPro 210, now with
Farallon NetLINE 10/100 PCI card (PN993-TX) installed.

The card was not mentioned during the network stage of the installation
process (the background console showed that eth0 was being used), but
during boot-up of the working system it is shown as eth1. If if use
ifconfig, I see eth0 and lo but no eth1.

I am not sure if this qualifies as a success or not! At least the card is
detected and recognised. I think there is something I should do to
configure the system to make it available (i.e., so I can see it in
ifconfig), because as I understand it I could then start to use it (e.g.,
in route configuration).

Any advice on the right next step, and how to take it, would be much
appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeff
