HELP!!!!

I see the 3c509 is supported how about the 3c509B?
To date I cannot get the network interface working.
If I boot -c and turn off the other devices at 0x300
then probe and attach when I finish booting ep0 is 
detected.  Otherwise the card isn't seen.

I disabled plug and play and the media type autosense
(it set it to BNC only).  It had a driver optimization
for DOS/Windows/OS2?  I choose DOS.  What is the correct answer?
Does it matter?

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!

Thanks in advance!!

Ron
