I am rebuilding an old redhat 7.1 firewall box the hard drive failed. All other hardware remained the same.
Anyway setup 9.3 fully patched no problems. Go to setup the second nic card and problems start. Everything seems to have worked both card installed and configured. However if I reboot the system both nics drop. They still show up is yast as being configured. "ifup eth0" and "ifup eth1" both say ERROR: Interface eth0 is not available. If I do a cold boot they both come up correctly. I figured it had to be something with plug-n-play in the bios. I have tried both pnp enabled os and no pnp enabled os same results.
What else can cause this. I am so confused.
1. delete all the interfaces configuration 2. reboot 3. reconfigure the nics again 4. if not working.send me the log file.
Tried that. Looking in yast again I notced if does have the netwrok cards listed as installed but also wants to install them again. First install set them up in the form of eth-id-<mac-address> second round tries bus-pci-<don't know what this number is> Log files only show interface not found.

Must have something to do with the 3comm cards. I replaced them with an intel and d-link and the problem went away.
