Installing with a DEC DE205 card...

[Sune Foldager <cryo danbbs dk>]

Hi,

I'm trying to install RedHat on a DIGITAL CELEBRIS 590, with a
EtherWORKS DE205 netcard. The information i get from WinNT's diagnostigs,
tells me the base address is 0x300 - 0x31f, and the irq is 5. It also
says the memory window is 0xd0000 - 0xd7fff. When i try to install, i
select EtherWORKS 3 as the net card, then choose specify options, and
enter: "io=0x300-0x31f irq=5" - which the install program accepts (
although it claims my card has a 2kb ram window at 0xc8000). But the
problem is: not contact with the card. The send LED on the back of the
card is off, and any request just times out. Do anyone know what the
problem might be?


Yours sincerly,
