pnpdump only generates an output with several options. You'll have to
modify each one, and write the results to /etc/isapnp.conf (pnpdump >
/etc/isapnp.conf does the task). So, You'll pick 1 of up to 3 IRQs, etc,
uncommenting the lines (removing #). If you have a dual boot machine, I
recommend you to use the same IRQ's an IO's values that are used under
windows.
I think that if you have isapnp installed, you don't have to do something
else. It'll read /etc/isapnp.conf and configure your card(s).
You should try to do isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf, before booting, so you'll
know the results before booting.
I'm a newbie(mostly). I'm answering you because I did a lot of mess with
isapnp, and my system did not crash.
