Someone gave me a Isolan Isolink card and cables to suit, there remains one
problem the guy that gave it to me didn't have any software or documentation for
it. So if anyone can recognize the type of card that it is from the following
information and how to configure it for use with 386bsd, it would be much
appreciated.
Info:
Model maybe 8850 or 88s0 or 0588 or 0s88

Jumper rows: 
name lk1 "DACK", has jumpers 3,2,1,0 set on 0
 "   lk2 "DREQ",  "     "    3,2,1,0 set on 0
 "   lk3 "INT" ,  "     "    9,a,b,c set on a
 "   lk4 "I/O" ,  "     "    8,7,6,5,4,x all jumpered except 7

It has a coax connection as well as the normal ethernet connector accessable
externally, and a forty pin male plug mounted on the pc-board accessable
internally.

	If anyone can give me any help with this I would be forever grateful, if
more info is needed please mail me.
