Since you were talking about a IIvx in here...

How do I get a IIvx to see the Ethernet Card installed?
Here is the exact stuff I get on boot from the system (it sees the card,
and can get the vendor info, but I don't know how to get the device created
for it so I can *attempt* to use ifconfig to get networking up):

nubus0: slot c: Apple Ethernet NB Card (Vendor: Copyright (C) 1990, 1991
Apple Coumter, Inc., Part: 341-0246)  not configured

Now how do I make the interface to pass to ifconfig?

Shawn.
