Yes, the card was working before.
Now, when I boot with the sysinst boot floppies, I can see
that it is recognizing the card. It shows a message like this
as sysinst is starting up:
ne1: at isa port 0x300-0x31F irq 10
ne1: NE2000 ethernet
Or something like that.
And the install notes say that the device should be configured
like this.
Novell NE1000, or NE2000 Ethernet boards
ne0 0x280 9
ne1 0x300 10
So I thought it should be OK.
I was having trouble with the syntax of that other method in
the kernel debugger.
If I found the line like this:
-loc+0x2a0 280 =0xf0279046
What would I enter at the debugger prompt to
set the IRQ?
Thanks,
Guy
