I'm in the process of installing 386bsd on my pc.
I bought an Intel EtherExpress 16 LAN adapter from a salesman who
swore it was compatable.
I called Intel and they couldn't tell me either way-- they advised
me to plug it in and see if it worked.
However, I can't return it if I open it...

Does anyone know for sure whether it will behave?  And if it will
work, are there any drivers out there I need to obtain?

Or have I just been duped?
