just add this to /etc/modules.conf
alias eth0 ne
options ne io=0xNNN
optionally you can also add the irq option to the "options" line,
for instance:
alias eth0 ne
options ne io=0xNNN irq=NN
This will make what you want
also not that you do not have to reboot your computer (think about this
with WinNT), just execute:
modprobe ne
and
/etc/init.d/network
as root
