Two nights ago, I found the problem had not been solved. I tried
some old NICs, mostly SMC cards and was unable to get them to work. These ed0 cards
where normally easy to use. But Azoos mentioned that I should try 0x300 as he had
never been able to get them to work with 0x280. So I tried that. Low and
behold, they worked. Here's the line from my kernel config:
device ed0 at isa? port 0x300 irq 10 iomem 0xcc000
With this setting, and a newly compiled kernel, I was able to use the NIC. For
