Please help with 3c905c

[Pierfrancesco Caci <ik5pvx@penny.ik5pvx.ampr.org>]

Hello, I need your assistance with this configuration:

I have a pentium 60 with 16 MB of ram, a video card, a 3c905c and
nothing else (no disk, no floppy, otherwise I wouldn't be here asking)

I've tried to set up a suitable kernel with "bin00013.bin" 
(cat bin00013.bin bzImage > vmlinuz.net), but when the card has
finished downloading the kernel from the dhcp/tftp server, it just
locks up beeping and flooding the screen with garbage.

I've tried to set up a bpbatch script, but it seems that bpbatch is
geared towards a set of machine _with_ a HD, not totally diskless
setups. 

What I'm asking you?

If you are able to boot a totally diskless machine with a 3c905c card
using either a modified kernel image or bpbatch, please pass me a full
step-by-step instruction. I could not understand the existing docs
myself. 

I would rather not flash away the content of the 3c905c eeprom to
replace it with etherboot (which I know someone has successfully
done), because I'm not at all confident with all the necessary steps
and I fear I could irreparably damage the card.        

Thanks for your time.

Pf
