reason it is stopping me login to it. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

Dunno what that means, but can you tell me, is the ne2000 card PCI or
ISA?

Can you also tell me if the output of 

pciconf -l

also please check again the output of ifconfig - is there any device
called ed0 or anything like that?

Lastly you could see if 

dmesg|grep ed

gives any sensible results. If the search string ed gives too much
output try:

dmesg|grep ed0

or

dmesg|grep if_ed

Summary of these commands (because I know you like to know what they do)

pciconf -l     show the pci devices recognised by the kernel
ifconfg       show network devices and info about them (if=interface)
dmesg      show the kernel log
|                       pipe - pass the output of the last command to
the input of the next command
grep ed        search (grep) for the string "ed" 

In other words dmesg|grep ed will search the kernel log for "ed"
