Well here I go, responding to my own post.  With #1 below that was for a
debian system only.  In RedHat you can look under /var/log/boot.log or
/var/log/messages (or take Russell Evans suggestion that just popped in!)

Answers to your Questions:
1.  How do I list the bootup messages?  Are they in a log file?
	A. under /var/log/dmeg you should see your boot messages.

2.  Is there a way to list all of the irq # and what they are assigned to?
	A. `cat proc/interrupts` should give you a listing.

3.  The last thing changed was installing a new network card to get on the
cable
     modem.  In windows it says that the irq for the nic is #5.  I thought
irq #5 was
     reserved for the printer?  I am thinking that because the nic was the
last to be
     installed that I will need to changed it's irq setting.  How?
    Nic   NEC 3000   pci   pnp
	A. If you feel you need to change the IRQ setting for your parallel
port you need to change it in the BIOS.  If you need to change the network
card you may need to download a setup utility to reconfigure the settings of
the card.  But without knowing that card (NEC 3000? I couldn't find on the
net) in specific I can't tell you.

Hope this helps,
