Did you configure the WD8013EOC correctly? Especially, what irq is it
configured to? Afaik, one combination is 0x300/10, another may be 0x280/3
(the latter not being very friendly as irq 3 is also sio1 irq.).

I'd suggest make sure what io/irq/iomem it is set to and then I'd
type at the Boot: prompt   kernel -c to configure to kernel
to the actual card's parameters.
