Case 1: if you have software configurable jumper & you have the floppy
	that come with wd8003, then

	Set up your WD8003 as

	i/o base = 280h
	irq = 2
	ram = 0d0000
	with the floppy (a:ezsetup) that ship with wd8003.	


Case 2: if you have jumper-only wd8003e card, then manually jumper
	the setting in your card like this:
	THIS IS FOR EtherLink Board !
	
	io base 	 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
		         H L H L L L L L L L

	irq (on J6)	 3 4 5 6 7 2
                                   H
                                    
	ram I am not sure about this.

Case 3: If you have software configurable board and you don't have
	that floppy, tought luck guys!

Hope this can be helpful.
