devn-el509.so and other ISA boards

Hi

I have a 3COM509 network card configured to IO address 0x300 and irq 5, and
everything is working great when I restart io-net with following options:

io-net -d el509 -p tcpip

But my problem is that is I plug in a digital IO board (Octagon 5300 on IO
address 0x100) then the 509 driver cannot find the network card any longer.

I have tried specifying the IO address to the io-net command:

io-net -d el509 ioport=0x300 -p tcpip

but without any luck.

The funny thing is if I move the address of the Octagon board to 0x110 then
everything works again.

Is it the ISA PNP that doesn’t like any other boards at 0x100, 0x200…

Yes, the 509 adapter has to have I/O address 0x100 free, otherwise it cannot
be detected.
