[eepro100] ata100 and eepro100

[Ilan Bar-On]

We are running linux mdk 8.0 (kernel 2.4.3) on an AMD thunderbird with IBM 
ata100 disk, and eepro100 net card.

The network works fine with dma disabled.

Also, with dma enabled, no disk problems: we can copy large 1Giga files. 

However,  the machine crashes when we try to say ftp a large file.

It seems therefore that the problem is with network card. 

Any idea on what can be done in order to fix this problem.
