Any CFG.EXE should work with the config files; it is the config data
that is important.

Note; this will fail if they varied from the "standard" per slot memory
allocation in their implementation, and the config you run assumes the
slot size instead of calling the EISA config real-mode interface to get
the slot size.

This is actually the one BIOS call that the protect mode interface
doesn't support, or I would have released a UNIX EISA config program
back in early (February) 1994.
