That's not a bad decision...;-)
But I hoped to get most out of the DSL box.

It is compiled as a module.

Not that I remember.
Donald Becker's tool show something about:
SunWave1#3c5x9setup -v
3c5x9setup.c:v1.00 6/19/2000 Donald Becker (becker@scyld.com)
http://www.scyld.com/diag/index.html
Interrupt sources are pending.
Adapter Failure indication.
3c5x9 found at 0x300.
Indication enable is 00fe, interrupt enable is 009c.
EEPROM contents:
Model number 3c509 version 4, base I/O 0x300, IRQ 5, 10baseT port.
3Com Node Address 00:A0:24:87:4A:A6 (used as a unique ID only).
OEM Station address 00:A0:24:87:4A:A6 (used as the ethernet address).
Manufacture date (MM/DD/YY) 4/1/96, division 6, product BZ.
Options: force full duplex, enable linkbeat.
The computed checksum matches the stored checksum of 96c0.
But the EEPROM content is different from Kernel PNP.
see above
SunWave1#3c5x9setup -f -p 220
3c5x9setup.c:v1.00 6/19/2000 Donald Becker (becker@scyld.com)
http://www.scyld.com/diag/index.html
No EtherLink III device exists at address 0x220.
Interrupt sources are pending.
Interrupt latch indication.
Adapter Failure indication.
Tx Complete indication.
Tx Available indication.
Rx Complete indication.
Rx Early Notice indication.
Driver Intr Request indication.
Statistics Full indication.
DMA Done indication.
Download Complete indication.
Upload Complete indication.
DMA in Progress indication.
Command in Progress indication.
3c5*9 not found at 0x220, status ffff.
If there is a 3c5*9 card in the machine, explicitly set the I/O port address
using '-p <ioaddr>
SunWave1#cat /proc/ioports | grep 3c509
0220-022f : 3c509 PnP
Ieeee, it destroy my setup, too. I have to reboot :-(
eth1: Infinite loop in interrupt, status ffff.

Thanks!
