Few days ago I've installed DE500-AA PCI Fast Ethernet network card. I've Alpha
Server 2100 running DU 4.0B. Everything was going fine, console monitor
detected a new device (ewb0.0.0.8.0), I've managed to set the card into
twisted-pair mode. Unfortunatelly the kernel did not detect the new adapter
(it still detects only my old DEC Tulip tu0 interface). Kernel recompilation
made no changes (I had expected it wouldn't). I think the problem is caused by
the lack of proper entry in /etc/sysconfigtab (of course I might be wrong and
it's pretty probable :) ). If anyone of you have had such problem before and
have got the solution, please e-mail or call me.
