I have a system with an AH1542B and an 8-bit 3c503.  I have completed the
kernal copy and initial floppy installtion.  I am trying to install over
ethernet via FTP.  My 3c503 does not have a memory jumper for 0xd000 so I
tried to set it up as ed1 (0x250,0xd800).  When I run the ifconfig almost
immediately I get a kernel message "ed1 timeout".

I'm not sure what is going on.  The autoconfig messages correctly identify
the ethernet card as an 8-bit 3c503.  The first possibility that occurs to me
is some problem either with using an 8-bit card or with using only ed1 or
some combination.  If somebody could build me a kernel with ed0 memory at
0xd800 I would like to try that.

If push comes to shove I can get the distribution onto tape but that would
take a lot of work and some phone lines.  I would appreciate any thoughts
anybody would like to share.
