NAME
     el	-- Ethernet driver for 3Com Etherlink 3C501 device driver

SYNOPSIS
     device el0	at isa?	port 0x300 irq 9

DESCRIPTION
     The el interface provides support for the 3Com 3c501 8bit ISA ethernet
     card.  The	3c501 card is known to be quite	slow, and a different ethernet
     card should be used if possible.  However,	they allow inexpensive access
     to	10 Mb/s	Ethernet networks.

     The valid I/O ports are in	the range 0x280-0x3f0.

BUGS
     The driver	assumes	the card is configured for the same IRQ	as the kernel.
     No	probing	or checking is done to determine if this is the	case.

     Does not currently	support	DMA.

     Does not currently	support	multicasts.
