	Hello all, 
		I am curious to see if anyone else out there has had any
luck getting a 3c507 card to work with 386bsd.  I recently acquired a 
3c507tp card for use with a campus wide ethernet system that was recently
installed (10baseT).  Talking to the local techs, it seems that they have been
able to use the same packet driver (msdos based) with the 3c507 as with the 
3c503 cards installed locally.  The 3c507 is configured internally as 
follows...
	port 0x250 irq 9 iomem 0xd8000

My machine is a Dell 486 dx-33....

	Does anybody have any ideas for me?  Have I missed something here?

    I have the basic bin01 and etc01 distributions installed, both working 
great!  Neither the tiny-bsd floppy nor the full 386bsd system will recognize
the card though!!!!

	Any help will be greatly appreciated.
	Thanks
