I have installed 'Woody' on a new hard drive and am having problems with
the NIC.  I know that the nic is ok and works under Linux but for some
strange reason the card is not being given the proper irq.  I have my
bios set to assign it #3 irq.  Included is a trimmed /var/log/dmesg
entry.  Could someone please point out what I am missing?
