First. I got a new ed driver which posted by davidg@agora.rain.com
to comp.os.386bsd.development and comp.os.386bsd.misc on 26 Nov. It
contains two files if_ed.c and if_edreg.h.
(You can find them on some ftp sites, I think.)
Second. I replaced same name files under /sys/arch/i386/isa with
new ones.
Third. I rewrite kernel configuration file copied from GENERICAHA
to use ed driver instead of ne driver and match i/o port for it.
Forth. I recompiled kernel and reboot with it. And be happy!
I'm using NetBSD0.9 with ne2000 compatible & new ed driver about a
month. I have no network trouble.
