You've certainly done your homework. The easiest way to fix the problem
(meaning my problem) is to add a line

ifconfig eth1 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0 up

to \tux\init\last on the boot floppy and it should bring it up. Thats what
I do on a trinux box I'm using as a firewall.


you can then also add the commands to enable IP forwarding and any initial
iptables commands to this same file.

I can send you what I use if you like.
