[jkunz@SirTobie conf]$ grep NFS PSIINOSCSI 
file-system     NFS             # Network file System client
file-system     KERNFS          # /kern
options         NFSSERVER       # Network File System server
options         NFS_BOOT_DHCP   # Support DHCP NFS root

As the messages from tulip.c (I enabled TLP_DEBUG) indicate: The kernel
tries to setup the interface and send packets, but they never get onto
the wire. 

Also: When I boot a kernel with SCSI support it hangs when the scsi bus
is scanned due to non-working PCI DMA.
