Second Ethernet

[Axel IS Main]

I actually tried that, but this stupid bios won't do it. For some reason 
it won't put the second nic on a different IRQ. Still, I don't think 
that's the problem any more. I took the second nic out and configured 
the remaining nic to DHCP. It still didn't pick up the ip, etc., from 
the cable modem. Man, I miss the days of having 5 IPs and a straight 
line to the net!
