I tried booting connection to a 10 :P~network and to a 100 network, none of them work, do you need to setup :P~the link speed on bsdi aswell, or should it auto-detect this during :P~bootup? Eh? I've been using these cards with the de driver since 2.1 was released without incident. Though I've only been using them in 10mbit mode.
