Can this be the unfamous IRQ-problem? Please check /proc/interrupts to
see if these devices share the same IRQ.
I can disable eth0 by accessing USB on my nforce3 machine. And, even
worse, wipe data from my SATA disk by putting about one minute of
traffic on eth1...

Stress-test your devices carefully before going into production!
