I don't remember including a net.i in BL2.  Do you mean
the one from Slackware 7.1?

That's what I said before.  A recent net.i works better
with recent cards.  An old net.i works better with old
cards.  For ISA cards, I always use the net.i from
Slackware 3.2.  It has never let me down.

Is it ISA?  If so, see what the Slack32 net.i says.
