The ne module handles both NE2000 and NE1000 cards. Just add
ne to your /etc/modules, and something like
options ne io=0x280 irq=10
to /etc/conf.modules.
An original NE1000 might need a shared memory address too,
but I can't tell you how to set that up because I've never needed to.
Try it and see though.
