Did this ethernet card work in an older kernel? The card type detection in mac8390.c is partially based on guesses and just trying different cards, as I remember. It's possible that it's detecting the wrong type, particularly since it isn't finding all the NuBus ROM resources it is expecting to be present on this card type. I suspect that it's not accessing the card correctly. Both the error messages are that the card isn't in a sane state based on what the driver tried to do. Incidentally, "apple" is the default type for any card the driver thinks it can use but can't identify with 100% certainty. Brad Boyer flar@allandria.com
