Hello,
Thanks to Thomas Davis, Kernel 2.3.50 now contains a network bonding module, effectively allowing you to combine several network interfaces into a virtual one, distributing packets sent to it equally over the real ones. I modified ifenslave.c so that it will allow you to set this up, WITHOUT rendering the real interfaces inaccessible. Ie, you can use both the real interfaces as you would normally do, AND the bonding interface. They can all have different IP addresses.

Met vriendelijke groet, Guus Sliepen.
