Hey im looking for a good ethernet card for my PS/2 286 machine, luckily its an ISA model, but i have an EA201 from netgear, but even if i use the NE2000 compatible driver, or the netgear driver, i cannot get arachne to use the card. The generic NE2000 seems to talk to the card and arachne can see it, but it hangs and never get's an IP address from the network, so it's basically being a useless card, but it cannot see the EA201's driver because it doesnt sit at 0x60 address, it sits at 0x62, and no matter what command i give the driver, it will not sit at 0x60 for some reason.
I know the card is fine because when i pop it into a windows 3.1 machine or 95 machine it works just fine.
any thoughts?
