Hello,

Well, as most of you no doubt know, the lnc ethernet driver is broken for
PCNet/PCI chips again (it gives up when its memory
is allocated above 16Mb, due to ISA limits in the driver).

Would it be a good idea to strip a PCI-only lnc driver out of
the ISA source, so that the ISA limits don't apply?

I know this chip is not the best, but I inherited several
Dual Pentium 100 workstations with integrated motherboard devices, and I
need to keep them going since they are very stable and reliable SMP machines
(Intergraph TD-30s).

If no one wants to fix the ISA/PCI version, I would like to help extract a
PCI-only version.

Looking for opinions...
