The card's size is read from the declaration ROM on the NuBUS card.
I don't recall where, exactly.  It probably takes the data from the
default setting on the card, though.  During boot, however, it uses
the data from the Grafport (!?--it's been a while... ;-), it will
probably continue to use the original data for console-type activities
within the kernel.

If you can get the 24-bit card to work, or have any ideas, it would
certainly be helpful.
