le - DEC EtherWORKS II/III Ethernet device driver
DEC DE204

>Description:

I'm trying to use a DEC DE204 (le) with 4.0R and 4.1R.

During the probe the kernel reports a few obscure problems with
"shims" - evidently the le driver hasn't been brought forward into
the newbus framework or something.  As soon as I ifconfig le0, the
kernel panics.

I can't capture the kernel probe messages unfortunately, as
I have no suitable alternate console to use.

The problem appears in the install kernel, the generic kernel and
in custom built kernels.

>How-To-Repeat:

install a DE204

correctly configure device le0 at isa?

do ifconfig le0 some-ip-address

panic

>Fix:
