Two wrong answers in a row...
- LILO parameters do not have any effect on modules
- The correct syntax would be "options 3c509 irq=5,10", but
- The current 3c509 driver doesn't need any options to detect all cards,
and the driver will read the IRQ from the card's EEPROM
Older 3c509 drivers had a broken modules conversion and can only detect a
single card by default. Getting an updated driver is the easiest fix.
