Er, you mean "MediaGX", right?  Which board is this?  I ask because I 
was playing with one a little while back that sounds quite similar.  It 
had a PCNet/FAST in it though.  Unfortunately, it was too buggy to be 
useful (bad BIOS I think), but it would have been an extremely compact 
server if it worked.

You might want to look at the tiny changes that were just recently 
committed to support the Hitachi Lance-clone.  They just force it to be 
treated like an ISA device, which for some odd reason works properly.
