Are the cards themselves in ISAPNP mode or in fixed-address/IRQ mode? Linux 2.4 has ISAPNP capabilities if you choose so at compile time, these might move the card. Check your boot logs and /proc/isapnp and /proc/sys/isapnp. > are no messages about anything failing, only the message that the one > card was found.
