Eh? The 3c509 is supported in the ep0 driver. What is the boot probe from that device? Any errors? Make sure you boot -c and change the settings for ed0. Then disable all other network cards. Oh, and turn off Plug and Play in the card's setup (3c5x9cfg.exe). That'll solve the 'erase pencil mark!' error message.
