If I understand correctly, ex(4) is for PCI bus and ep(4) for ISA-type
buses. The ep(4) manual says the PCI 3c90xB is not supported by ep(4) and
that ex(4) should be used (for PCI).

But I guess it doesn't matter now, because his other posting seems to
indicate it all works now. And he did use ep(4) and he referred to an "old
PC".
