Ok, so I used the Olicom diagnostics disk to get the
parameters for the card and it is recognized.  Here is
the output from dmesg.

oltr0: <Olicom ISA 16/4 Adapter (OC-3118)> at port
0xa20-0xa3f irq 10 drq 3 on isa0
oltr0: MAC address 00:00:83:7f:7c:a6

ifconfig oltr0 shows:

oltr0: flags=2<BROADCAST> mtu 1500
        lladdr 0.0.83.7f.7c.a6
        media: Token ring UTP/16Mbit

I have plugged into both a passive mau and a powered
switch and when I do: 'ifconfig oltr0 up', I get these
errors:

oltr0: adapter init failure 0x400
oltr0: adapter refused receive fragment 0 (rc = 1)

Any idea what is going on?  

I should also add that there will not be an address on
this card.  It will only run in promiscuous mode. I
appreciate all your help making this progress.

According to trlld.h, 0x400 means "adapter cannot interrupt", suggesting a
hardware configuration issue with the irq. Is there something else in the
machine on irq 10 perhaps? Remember, ISA cards cannot share interrupts
like PCI can.

Might want to check in your BIOS setup to see if there is some built-in
peripheral, maybe even ACPI, on irq 10, or if it's getting assigned to PCI
devices and adjust the configuration accordingly.

Yes, there was something else on irq 10.

pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x1000, dev=0x000f) at
13.1 irq 10
pci0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> at
18.2 irq 10

I used the cfg3118.exe utility from the Olicom setup
disk to change the irq.  So, the output from dmesg now
looks like this:

oltr0: <Olicom ISA 16/4 Adapter (OC-3118)> at port
0xa20-0xa3f irq 7 drq 3 on isa0
oltr0: MAC address 00:00:83:7f:7c:a6
oltr0: ring insert (16 Mbps - TXI)
oltr0: Ring status change:  [Soft Error]

I only get one soft error, which I think I can safely
ignore.  

I appreciate all your help.  Thank you!

-Adam
