I don't think so :(
I'm going to look at that ...
For the PCI devices , some special functions have to be called
to find the card ( pci_find_device ,...) and then grab the
base_address register of the card to handle it.
But it should be interesting, cause the PCI ne2000 provides
burst transfert and (perhaps) bus-master while the ISA ne2000 didn't
provide the DMA transfert ...
