Yes it has this option (as well as a slew of options for setting legacy
stuff) on the PCI/ISA bus.
I tried several combinations of these settings just now and the failure
mode is always the same on the K-6/2 system.
I also tried removing all cards except video on the machine, having only
the MacPhyter netgear FA311 card in the machine, and then (again) trying
a number of combinations of the BIOS settings.
The failure mode is always the same...eth0 : PCI error 0x800000.
It's too bad the scyld.com website is in such disarray...I'd almost like
to post a message over there.
