FWIW, if this is the old 8bit card I sent you ages back (e.g. a "Lattisnet"
card, not true 10BaseT), you can configure it for 32K of shared RAM.
Then you need to change the iosiz parameter on the ed0 line.
Somelike "iosiz 32768" I believe.  I don't have docs for one of those
cards handy, but I believe you change 2 or 3 jumpers to enable 32K mode.
I have used these cards with 32K of shared RAM, and they were able to keep
up with my other hardware. (at that time - almost 3 years ago now?)
