Newer Ether3's (based on NQ80C04A) do not work properly with the
linux ether3 driver - I'm currently awaiting driver docs so that
I can remedy the driver. This is not just an A5000 problem.
So far, I've managed to get mine to bootp, but larger transfers
still fail.
With kernel 2.0.34 the kernel even says the ethercard RAM is
faulty! Odd.
Ian.
