        The only thing that I can identify as a common factor, is that the
PCI slots are on a riser card.  One type is an NLX-form factor
motherboard.  The other is an industrial system with a Single Board
Computer (SBC) and a passive backplain.  Aside from the riser card, these
machines are completely different.  (IDE vs. SCSI, no other PCI devices,
SCSI pci device, pentium vs pentium-II... onboard video/ethernet(in
addition to the intel cards) vs nothing onboard...)  

        However, we have at least one industrial-type system (with a
different board/config) that works fine with these cards, though we didn't
do the install with one.  I'll try that tomorrow and report my findings.

I doubt this is the case, but is the fxp driver different on the install
floppy than on the post-install kernel / kernel-source?

Any suggestions as to what I should look into?

Thanks,

Jay
