I've found a dirty hack to solve my problem with the very slow ethernet!

set in COREOPTIONS: cb_mem_base=<membase found in W98>
reboot system
start win98 (it dosn't works by starting only DOS :-()
boot linux using loadlin
if the pcmcia_cs is loaded there will be an error-message:
   ignore it :-)
log in as root
typein: /etc/rc.d/pcmcia stop
        /etc/rc.d/pcmcia start

and now my network is as fast as an 10base2-Network :-)

I've only found two differences in the pci-register sets:

the PCI-Latency-Timer is now 168 instead 32 and the Region 0 shows memory at <ignored> instead mamory at 0x0e....

I've not yet compared the EXCA-Registers!
