I had some problems at first with Plug and Play enabled.  I disabled it
with the DOS utility that came with the card.  I then set the IRQ to
something not being used (found that info during boot time...).  At the
boot: prompt, I typed "-c"  and then "visual".  I went through each driver
and deleted any unused drivers.  Also manually set ep0 to the IRQ I had
chosen.  After that, everything went perfect.

Now if I could only get past that nasty compile error I'm getting about
bt0 when I try to compile the kernel...
