already have the io port and irq, thats not the problem, the problem is the old
card, a tulip, the redhat-config-network lets me select the 3com 509 and set the
irq and port, but then it says you have selected a tulip card, after I just have
selected the 3com and set the io and irq.

it seems that the parameters for the tulip card is still set somewere and
redhat-config-network can't seem to forget about the old card and config the
new card!!!

I would like to know where this info is set so I can wipe it out.

You have to know which resources the ISA card uses to be able to pass
them - IRQ and IO - as parameter to the ethernet device module. Maybe
run the DOS tool by 3Com to find out the values and maybe set them. In
addition use motherboard BIOS to set an IRQ for ISA usage for the NIC.
