[Etherlab-users] Dual Ethernet Box and kernel driver configuration

Hi All

I'm configuring a box which has two Ethernet interfaces using the same 
network driver for both (igb)

Using the packages build by Forian and his team 
(https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:bone11111:branches:science:EtherLab) 
I would like to configure one port for EtherCAT and the other for normal 
usage.

It seems to me that when I set the driver to "igb" in /etc/ethercat.conf 
and enter an interface name or mac address in MASTER0_DEVICE the ec_igb 
driver seems to still override both interfaces.

As the ec_igb is not the best for general Ethernet usage it would be 
best to keep the normal driver active.

How do I accomplish this?

Thanks
Mike
