I'm trying to install NetBSD on a Pentium with a 3c590 ethernet card.
The card works with the Windows 95 installed on the disk.  The NetBSD
kernel sees the card, assigns it ep1, and mentions the correct IRQ
(11).  I do a ifconfig ep1 <ipaddr>, which works fine, but I can't ping
anyone.  After a bit, it says
"ping: sendto: Host is down".  I'm using the BNC connector on the card.
In Windows 95, the driver says it using IRQ 11 and address 6000-601F.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
