	I have tried both a wd8003e 16 bit card and a ne2000 clone.
	The wd8003e was left at int 2/9, but I re-compiled the
	kernel and put the ne2000 at int 11.
	I get 1.1e+02 kbytes/s ftp'ing with both. (these are large 2-10
	meg files).  The 0.1 system is a 33mhz 386 with a couple IDE
	drives, and the other system is a 33mhz 486 sysvr4 system
	with a wd8003e.
