man pccard.conf

It seems that the default pccard.conf doesn't have an entry for your
card.  Therefore, you will have to:

1) Run "pccardc dumpcis" to find out what the card calls itself.

2) This is important - find the right driver for it!  I'm not sure which
one it is - or whether it's even supported.  If you're lucky, ed0 might
recognise it as a generic NE2000.

3) Compile the driver into the kernel - that is

device  ed0   at  isa? port 0x280 irq 11 iomem 0xd8000

(use the correct values for port, irq and iomem for your card -
obviously!)

4) Add the relevant entry to /etc/pccard.conf (including irq, port and
iomem).

5) Plug and pray.

Alex
