Look on the ethernet board.  If you see a Motorola chip on it labeled
MC68000FN10 or something similar, it means the card is based on a 68000
series processor and is not supported by NetBSD.  I don't know if it will
ever be supported since it is kind of an oddball.  You are better off just
getting new card.  I recommend one of the Asante Maccon ethernet cards.
These work great with NetBSD.
