There are instructions in the list archives or somewhere on the internet 
for building a custom kernel with *just* your network card in it.  You 
have to make smart choices because you need to support everything you 
need but the kernel can't be too big (<1mb), it has to fit on a floppy.

I did this.  Of course you need a working Linux environment to build the 
kernel.
