building new firewall 7.1, dual nic. Pulling hair

Ok, here goes:

I'm trying to get an old Pentium 75 to run as a dual-
NIC firewall. Stupid me, I should know better than
to screw with something that's working, right?

Anyway, I have an eepro100 NIC, which works fine.

The problem is that I can't get the damned SMC Ultra
NIC to initialize, dammit! I KNOW that it works with
the eepro100 in the box, too. The only thing that is
different is the software (7.0 -> 7.1 rebuild)

I try to set teh IO to 0x200 or 0x300 and try to
modprobe it, but I get back "resouce busy"

AURGH! Anyone have a suggestion on what I'm
missing? (other than a better NIC, that is...)

TIA, ASAP.

Geordon
