When you say you can 'see' the cards in your bootup, do you mean they
are loading the modules?  I assume you inserted an 'append' line in your
lilo config to tell the kernel you have two intel 10/100pro cards (good
cards btw)?  Have you read the Ethernet howto?

Hope that helps... or at least narrows down your prob.
