Okay, so what has changed from 02-27-94 to 03-07-94 that would have hosed
us?  *WHAT* do you suggest we misconfigured?  Same configuration worked
with the 02-27-94 kernel...

Okay, wasn't really looking for an answer to this one, just supplying
information that I thought might pertain to the situation.

>> Also, has the problems with the NE2000 code been fixed yet?

I reported the following problem with NE2000 cards about 1-2 months back.
I get the following messages occasionally, and it disables my card for
several minutes.

Also, here is my boot up messages from the 02-27-94 kernel vs. the 03-07-94.
I removed the date/time/kernel portion for brievity.
