I could be wrong here, but you may want to try passing command line
arguments to the kernel upon startup. Have a read of the bootprompt howto
as well as the ethernet-howto, as they will give you the corect syntax needed
to get your card working.

I was mucking around with an Intel Etherexpress PRO 10, I couldnt get it working
but when I was trying to set it up, Ian Lisle suggested that I use a command
line option where you tell the kernel the memory address and the IRQ that you
are using for the card.

The command line option that I was using was ether=9,0x210,0,0,eth0.



Good Luck
