When system is delaying eth0 initialization, there is no device found in
the computer (or there is no suitable driver). Try to see modules (in
/lib/modules/<version>/*, where <version> is youf linux version).
8019 is, i think, usable as ne2000, or have it's own driver. If there is
no usable module, you have to recompile your kernel (cd /usr/src/linux;
make menuconfig ; make dep clean modules modules_install zImage) - see
READMEs or HOWTOs. You can load modules using insmod command (insmod
ne2000, then try ifconfig eth0 <IP>, where IP is an IP address).
if this does not work, you have to recompile your kernel. IRQs can be
probed, if this does not work, you can set it as a parameter of insmod
command).
