/*
* S.B.
*
* Now behavior was slightly changed:
*
* if any of flags link[0-2] is used and its connector is
* physically present the following connectors are used:
*
* link0 - AUI * highest precedence
* link1 - BNC
* link2 - UTP * lowest precedence
*
* If none of them is specified then
* connector specified in the EEPROM is used
* (if present on card or AUI if not).

S.B. is, I believe, Serge Bakin. He provided the latest changes to
the if_ep.c code.
You might want to use the link1 flag with ifconfig.
