Bleagh. Try going up a directory.
Tried that once, no luck. To be precise (in case anyone cares):

When you say "doesn't even manage to read the first byte", what happens?
Is this a software bug (spinning forever), or a hardware bug (read from
card locks machine?).
The latter.

The TOSH_ETHER define is for some Toshiba cards. Unfiended interrupt 0 is
doubly odd. 8)
Yeah, way bizarre.
I take it that you tried removing the call to ed_probe_WD80x3() in order to
determine that the NE2000 probe fails?
No, it's that defining TOSH_ETHER causes ed_probe_WD80x3 to not hang. Maybe I
should just try enabling that first power-on of the card, and not the rest of
TOSH_ETHER? Unlikely.
the Danpex card I use at the moment is actually quite easy to open up. If
yours is the same....
No way, I don't even see *how* it opens up. I'd rather be able to get my money
back.
Oh boy, my big chance to see Fry's "service" in action....
