I am trying to get the Ethernet functioning on a Zeos Boa or Coral board.  
I have the adapter, filter chip, AMD79C974KC chip, and 20Mhz crystal on the 
Coral, 4th jumper in on the Boa.  I cannot get the AMD software to see the
card.  Is there some trick, other than setting the option on in the CMOS?

Please help!
