    Thats correct, it's an "IBM 10/100 EtherJet" (P/N 08L3148), but the
    card appears to have a tulip chipset.

    I will try with the standard tulip driver aswell.

    Under 2.3.99-pre3:

    squeamish:~# dump_cis
    Socket 0:
      no CIS present

    squeamish:~# cardctl ident
    Socket 0:
      no product info available

    Also, 'ifconfig eth0 down; sync; cardctl eject", and the physicaly
    ejecting the card causes a total lockup of the machine under pre3 (I
    just did this).
