I am trying to install 386BSD on my 486-66 machine
from the binary distribution. It seems that the Ether card
is not recognized by the OS. My Ether card is a 16bit
ELAN-2000 (which is not on the list of supported Ether
cards in the release notes) I have tried IRQ9 but no
luck. Do I have to reconfig the based I/O address on
the Ether card? Or I have to recompile the kernal
to get it to work?

Any help is appreciated

Jack
