Yes - but adding this high-memory range makes the problem
worse: instead of getting "Unknown command FF" the machine
freezes up.

Basically, at this time I'm at:

The Token Ring card seems to be recognized and initialized OK.
When the "./network tr0" script begins, "ifconfig" command
hangs up with "Unknown command FF"... This is the best I've
gotten so far, with the following:

	kernel 2.2.10
	glibc-2.1
	egcs-1.1.2
	pcmcia-3.0.13

config.opts:

	include memory 0xd0000-oxdffff
	# no more memory given!
	module "ibmtr_cs" opts "ringspeed 16 irq_list=9"

It correctly allocates srambase and mmiobase, takes the proper
IRQ vector... Oh well...
