I booted the Slackware 3.3 net.i kernel from DOS.
I read this:

"eth0: D-Link DE-600 pocket adapter: not at I/O 0x378
D-Link DE-620 pocket  adapter not identified in the printerport
arcnet.c: v2.56 96/10/18 Avery Pennarun apenwarr AT foxnet.net
arc0: Stage1: No ARcnet cards found"

Something to change in the BIOS settings?

Thank you for help.
Regards,

Giuseppe
