Hi,

NE2000 ist not plug and play and not a PCI-Card. Therefore you have to
specify the module and the parameters. In one of my machines I have a line
in /etc/modules.conf:

>> alias eth1 ne
>> add options ne io=0x300

equivalent would be something like "/sbin/modprobe ne io=0x300". And you
have to be sure that the card is configured with this IO-Adress. The
programm for changing the card-configuration is usually MS-DOS based.

regards

Stefan Kell
