Just comment out the line a3c90x_internal_WriteEeprom(INF_3C90X.IOAddr, 0x13, 0x0160); in src/3c90x.c, recompile Etherboot and reconfigure the card using the configuration utility from the 3c905 driver disk to the defaults (autodetect duplex, ...). Alternatively you might try Etherboot 4.5.5, in which this line is disabled by default (but may be enabled if need be). The reconfiguration with the DOS utility is still required to get the card working again...
