if you have isa cards i suggest you bind them to a specific irq and io, if
you have pci you might try to only supply the irq and the driver should
outodetect the io addresses.
to do it "the debian way (tm)" either
a. create /etc/modutils/ne with the propriate options line and to have the
driver loaded at boottime add a line containing "ne" to /etc/modules
or
b. use modconf and when selecting the ne driver and asked for options
supply as shown above.
