I have a somewhat old 486 box I'm using as a dual-homed host.  It has two
SMC EtherEZ ISA cards in it, and works fine under 3.4-STABLE.  The cards
are on irregular ports/IRQs/et al.

My problem is that in the kernel config, it is only possible to hard code
ed0's settings, but that ed1 is probed (incorrectly) by the hardware probe
later, resulting in a hang.  I'd be happy to either have ed1 not probed at
all, or to be able to edit the settings ed1 is probed as, but not neither
:-).  Right now, without pulling hardware, there seems to be no way to
install the snapshot, which is unfortunate given that it is a valid
configuration, and works fine under 3.4.  In fact, it would probably even
work fine with a custom 4.0 kernel, but I'd rather not do that if there's
an alternative (especially since it seems like there should be a way to
make it work).

Any suggestions about fixes?  I'd really like to just ``disable ed1'' or
set the settings correctly, but ed1 is unrecognized by the CLI.
