Again from the source I guess that options=0 sets the media type to
10BaseT, but maybe you'll need options=12 to forcefully set it (again
from tulip_core.c):
/* The possible media types that can be set in options[] are: */
const char * const medianame[32] = {
"10baseT", "10base2", "AUI", "100baseTx",
"10baseT-FDX", "100baseTx-FDX", "100baseT4", "100baseFx",
"100baseFx-FDX", "MII 10baseT", "MII 10baseT-FDX", "MII",
"10baseT(forced)", ....
So, I would give it a try. But then, I'm not much of a c-man and I'm
known to lead man astray, so be warned!
