I have the ethernet plugged into my PCMCIA adaptor (which has worked before, under a different distro). I don't know where to start trouble-shooting. Suggestions?
Always, always, always, in layers, starting from the bottom layer.

Interrupt:10 Base address:0xbc00Do you the HwAddr there? If you don't it can't even see the ethernet adapter to read the MAC address.
Do you see an idet addr? Your ip address is not configured.

Do you have a gateway set up?
Hint, try ping something on the same LAN segment as you, if you can see it, but not something external guess that your gateway / netmask is set wrong.
