Here's a dmesg. Note that I've forced the pcic to IRQ 9. The default was
10, and since 5 and 11 are committed (5 to the sound card, 11 to video)
leaving it at 10 would leave no IRQ for ep0. In short, if I did the
standard install from floppies, the machine couldn't allocate an IRQ
for the Ethernet card and therefore couldn't complete the install.
I don't understand why it's so restrictive about the IRQs it will
allow to be used for PCMCIA.
