The zp driver has some problems with 3C589"C", the newest model of PCMCIA Etherlink III. Please test one of these installation floppies. boot.flp of 2.2-960323-SNAP it has newest zp driver and it works with 3C589C Bug-fixed version of 2.1.0-RELEASE installation floppy in ftp://bash.cc.keio.ac.jp/pub/os/FreeBSD/alpha-test/zpfix/ zp driver of this floppy works with 3C589C PC-card aware floppy in ftp://bash.cc.keio.ac.jp/pub/os/FreeBSD/alpha-test/pccard-flp/ zp driver was replaced with new driver "nep" ... and after the installation, I recommend you to use our pccard package. It enables hotplug of PCMCIA cards and supports many cards. Please read http://www.mt.cs.keio.ac.jp/person/hosokawa/freebsd-pcmcia/ for details.
