HELP!

Anyone running NetBSD with an ed0 card who can help me please do.

I'm trying to install NetBSD 0.9 with an "800e" card (wd8000 compat).  It
is a generic card.  The card worked with DOS drivers, 386bsd 0.1, and
Linux.  NetBSD however will not recognize the card.  

On boot I get this message:

ed0: failed to clear shared memory at fe0d2000 - check configuration

I've got the card set at I/O 0x280, IRQ 2/9, and 0xd0000.

ANY suggestions PLEASE?!?!?!?

Thank You, 
Stephen Waits
