good day ...

i'm having a little trouble getting a fast etherworks (DE500-AA) card to
work in a dux 4.0b/alphastation 255. i've installed a bunch of these already
and this is the first problem i've had. this is how i do the install:

        1. boot -fi genvmunix -- from the console prompt.
        2. doconfig a new kernel
        3. reboot with the new kernel.

thats it. my problem with the current system is when i boot to genvmunix i get
this error:

Jun 11 10:09:39 igor2 vmunix: tu1: DECchip 21140-AA: Revision: 2.0
Jun 11 10:09:39 igor2 vmunix: tu1: didn't find expected PHY device
Jun 11 10:09:39 igor2 vmunix: tu1 in pci slot 13 not probed

and the card never gets recognized by the new kernel. i've swapped it in and
out of the pci slots, same results both slots. the card links up with the hub
and shows up as ewb0 in the boot prom's.

any suggestions appreciated.
