[I seem to remember reading |> somewhere IRQ 9 being equivalent to IRQ 2 on some systems] I think you should try to configure your card at irq 9. The generic kernel is configured whith this: device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 irq 9 iomem 0xd0000 device ed1 at isa? port 0x250 irq 9 iomem 0xd8000 device ed2 at isa? port 0x300 irq 10 iomem 0xcc000 -- Manuel Bouyer, Ecole Nationale Superieure de Techniques Avancees, Paris email: bouyer@ensta.fr --
