    Recently I got a "Professional Workstation" - a 486DX33
    with 82596 on board ethernet and NCR(?) on board SCSI.

    It was not very difficult to get the 82596 to work
    (I put something that works on
            ftp.XX.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/aeb/lp486e.c
    comments are welcome)
    The 82596 itself is well-documented in Intel's 29021806.pdf
    but I have almost no information on the use of the I/O ports
    and do not know a good way to find the ethernet address.

    But there is also SCSI on this board - at boot time it prints
            Ballard Synergy CAMcore(R), Copyright 1991, 1.602
            LP486E NCR SDMS
    if and only if SCSI is enabled in the BIOS setup.
    Does anybody have an idea how to make this do something?
