I just installed red hat 7 on an old dell I have here - Problem is, is that it didnt pick up the 2 ISA 3com nics I have in it .. Is there a command or something i need to run in order for this machine to pick up the cards?? also someone told me that redhat7 doesnt support isa anymore which just sounds absloutely ridiculous to me.

RH 7.0 does recognize ISA. I'm running RH 7.0 on a client and server - BOTH have 3Com 3c509 NIC's. (I also have another client with an ISA NIC, but I can't remember the mfr...).
They're also using ISA SoundBlaster's.

Use linuxconf to configure eth0. If you have problems, repost. I've written up reams on this in the past.
