Ish Rattan <ishwar@pali.cps.cmich.edu>:
	1. Do the following network cards in server?
	   - Intel Ether Express PRO/100+ PCI (controller i82559)
	   - 3Com Fast EtherLink XL 10/100 (3C905C-TX-M)
	   - Is EtherLink III an ISA card(?) same as 3C905B-TP?

As it stands, the distribution will only cope with the i82259 or the
Etherlink III ISA card (which is NOT the same as the 905B).
There are fixes for the 905x cards coming in the next update. However,
someone has had persistent trouble with the 905C which I have not
been able to reproduce.
