     I don't know about Etnernet.  But you have another problem, not
Xenix related.  As far as I know, most BIOS's do a hardware check upon
power up.  If it detects a problem, they will hang until the F1 key
(usually) is pressed, or just hang until reset.  The hardware will need
the monitor card and the keyboard to be physically present, but Xenix
can be set up to use a serial console.
