Hi Jopoy,

Actually it's option 129 (kernel params).  Since you have an ISA card it cannot be 
autodetected by the kernel 
(newer PCI cards are already autodetected) . You have to explicitly specify it in the 
kernel parameters 
(facilitated by etherboot through option-129, see vendortags in etherboot for more 
details to know these tags 
work).

For example, a workstation declaration in your /etc/dhcpd.conf file might look similar 
to:

host WorkstationOne {
        #- the MAC address of your card goes here...
        hardware ethernet       xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx;

        #- the IP address you want assigned....
        fixed-address           192.168.10.1;

        #-this is where you tell the kernel about your card. Note:the IO address can 
sometimes be omitted ;-)
        option option-129       "NIC=ne IO=0x300";

        <snip>
}

Hope this helps,

phil
