   My guess would be that the 946c isn't set to 0x330 (or is that 0x334...I
don't recall). I know the card I have is set to 0x334 and that I had to
change the kernel to match (I recall not being able to set it to 0x330 for
some reason). Anyway, I think your problem is with the I/O address of the card
and the kernel not matching. If you know how the card is set, you can use the
'-c' option at boot time to enter 'userconfig' to change it in the kernel
('help' should give a hint at what to do).
