Hello,

   I think it should work. But you'll probably have to build a kernel
for it. The 'standard' kernel only has networkinterfaces for 1 of
all the supported networkcards. But if you make your own kernel
you have to add a line to the config file for a network card
at another address. (Or us tho cards of diffenent make at the
configured adresses.
  The FAQ#47 tells us that routing is currently disabled, but it
does not tell how to put it back on. But it shoudl be
possible.
