Subject:   Problem Adding 2nd NIC

I'd appreciate a few pointers having tried the archives and mailing list for
relevant info.

I am adding a 2nd NIC for a cable modem. It is a Netgear FA311. I had no
problems configuring the first card, a Netgear FA310TX some time ago using
pn0.

I've added the line:
  device pn1			(with no additional parameters)
to the config file,
and then executed:
/usr/sbin/config NEWKERNEL    (which reports the new compile directory on
completion)
cd ../../compile/NEWKERNEL
make depend
make
make install

pn1 is not recognised on reboot nor with ifconfig -a. The card is working
fine. The only think I've noticed is that 'make' completes in about 2-3 mins
which seems way too short.

Can't think what else might be wrong - any clues anyone?
