Help! Ethernet configuration

If a UNIBUS device appears not to interrupt when it is set for one
interrupt address but does work at others, then in the first case
the interrupt is almost certainly going though a vector that
the uba configuration routines have already reserved for another
device.

Berkeley UNIX, at least, doesn't give a damn where the
device registers or interrupt vectors are, as long as they don't overlap
and the vectors are in the standard range (0-0777, I think).  So pick
anything that is convenient.

If you want to run VMS on the machine for any reason, you may have to
use standard addresses and vectors.
