I have two ethernet adapters, eth0 and eth1.

Without 8139too, eth0 works fine, initializing on startup. However, eth1 will not start:

Code:

# /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
* Starting eth1
* Bringing up eth1
* dhcp
* eth1 does not exist

After I load 8139too, eth1 starts fine:

Code:

# modprobe 8139too
# /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
* Starting eth1
* Bringing up eth1
* dhcp
* Running dhcpcd ... [ ok ]
* eth1 received address 192.168.0.106

Ok, so everything's working fine. I want to load the module at boot, so I add 8139too to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6. When I do this, eth0 can no longer access the network (although it is still initialized w/ a static IP without error). When I try to start eth1, it hangs at "Running dhcpd"

Any ideas?
