weird freez upon network init

[Jaap Hogenberg <Jaap Hogenberg nl abnamro com>]

Hi

I have got a network problem that I have not been able to solve yet.
This is the setup:
533 Mhz sx164,
kernel 2.0.35
network card NE2000 combo clone , isa

I've build a network module for the ne2000 .

If I turn networking on it works. ( I use a b-class network, )
I can use it without any problem at all , until I reboot one of the other 
machines
on the subnet.
It looks like the driver crashes on broadcast or multicast packets ; 
the machine just freezes after this.

Is there a possibility to get more info from  the network driver / turn 
debugging on ?
Are the special configuration options I should use when compiling ?

I'm lost here , please help

TIA,
Jaap
