I was able to hack fw to be able to use the ISA cards, here is what I
changed:
In /usr/sbin/ethconfig line 84 I modified it so it would read:
-----BEGIN------
# get card name
if "bus-info" in ethinfo.keys():
if len(ethinfo["bus-info"]):
businfo = ethinfo["bus-info"].split(":", 1)[1]
name = filter(lambda l: l.find(businfo) > -1, lspci)
if len(name):
name = name[0].split(businfo)[1].split(":",
1)[1].strip()
else:
name = "Unknown Network Interface Card"
else:
businfo = 'n/a'
name = 'n/a'
else:
businfo = 'n/a'
name = 'n/a'
-----END------
In /etc/rc.d/rc.netdrivers I modified this:
-----BEGIN------
. /etc/rc.d/efw_lib.sh
modprobe 3c509
/etc/rc.d/efw-network-rc6_rc7.sh
-----END------
Hope it helps for someone in the same problem as I had.

Debuging a little ethconfig I found that it's trying to get businfo from
lspci, and since 509 are isa cards, they don't show information about bus
info.
To bring it up I will just try and make fixes to startup scripts, since with
modprobe I can make them work
Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated before I start messing up
the install. And the problem comes on replicating the setup on the rest of
the firewalls. I can change this one since I have it in the office next to
me but doing this on remote firewalls will be quite a problem.

509's are ISA cards, 905's are PCI. I'm guessing the current kernel doesn't
have ISA support enabled.
