Yeah. No huge surprise there. :)

I tried it with netbsd-7, as that's what I had at hand. Is it a problem
and I should try current? Sadly, it didn't work. The card is now bound as
ne0, but then it cannot proceed further:

pcmcia0 at pccard0
ne0 at pcmcia0 function 0: <PCMCIA, Fast-Ethernet, , >
ne0: where did the card go?

I can try over the WE with netbsd-current, if necessary.

I choose the 2nd option for now, attached both files (card_info.output and
the generated card_info.bin).

Getting PCMCIA card info...

..PCMCIA.Fast-Ethernet...

Appears to be a Network card

CCR Offset address (16 bit) = $0003C0, Config ID = $07

Interface Type 1, uses: WAIT 

Getting I/O memory now - remove card if system freezes!

Saving data to t:card_info.bin

card_info done.
