 But, I don't get it:

 - when isa-pnp is insmod'ed, it messes with 3c509

 Why so?

Hmmm, I have been bursting into cursing mode because of this issue too.
Actually, kernel isa-pnp module will *OVERRIDE* isapnptools setting, and
used some certain decided setting. If that setting don't fit the real
jumper setting of card, then there's no easy way to fix it -- either
change jumper and all other conflicting cards to suit the kernel setting,
or go through some undocumented (or barely documented) setting under
/proc.

 No, it's not solved yet AFAIK.

The scenario seems to be (correct me if necessary):

- you load (during stage1) 3c509 isa netword card driver by hand
- there is no dependency 3c509 - isa-pnp
- but when isa-pnp gets loaded by drakx (due to dep on serial.o), it
  reclaims the netword card, and make the interface collapse


For the moment we may have two solutions:

- disable isa-pnp for boot kernel
- always insmod isa-pnp during stage1 (dirty!?)

nope, if you ask the kernel to install isa-pnp, you initialize the
isa-pnp space,  you need to do that the first time that you need the
thing.  Ohh, wait, we need to fix the kernel, 3c509 _should_ not work
until isa-pnp is loaded.  Problem was, isa-pnp worked pretty bad in
the kernel, that means that _some_ cards put a simple implementation
(aka it works for me), that implementation now breaks that we have
real isa-pnp support.  I think that we need:
1- isa-pnp in the krenel (but it give some problems when isa-pnp was
   compiled in-kernel, jeff do you remind was what they?
2- do a insmod isa-pnp before _anything_ in stage1.
3- fix all the kernel isa drivers and remove their isa-pnp support
   (not an option IMHO).

Are you sure the server is still responding :-)) ?

Seriously, yes I am sure.
I am using a hub and I can see the light going off on the client side.
The server is still on and available.

Well the kernel says that the server is not responding.. how do you
interpret this? Some compatibility problems?

The thing is that it begins to work (isapnp stuff, etc) before not
responding which is strange...
