These act like a Lance (lnc) Ethernet card.  2.2.2 should pick it up, a
fix was put in several months ago to make these probe up.

TO hack it manually, boot with the -v option, get the port and IRQ from
the output, and program that in to the lnc driver.  You'll have to use
command-line mode userconfig to program in the port number (visual
userconfig won't let you).
