You will need to specify the io and irq that are passed to the kernel in
the syslinux.cfg file on the boot floppy. There are some sample cfgs
there, such as:
display license
prompt 1
default network
timeout 30
label floppy
kernel bzimage
append initrd=initrd.gz root=/dev/ram0 pkg=floppy
label 486
kernel bzimage
append ether=3,0x220,eth1 ether=11,0x1000,eth0 initrd=initrd.gz
root=/dev/ram0 pkg=network
label gxa
kernel bzimage
append ether=10,0,eth0 ether=5,0x300,eth1 initrd=initrd.gz
root=/dev/ram0 pkg=network
label cdrom
kernel bzimage
append initrd=initrd.gz root=/dev/ram0 pkg=cdrom
label network
kernel bzimage
append vga=4 initrd=initrd.gz root=/dev/ram0 pkg=network
The "network" label boots by default so add ethere=irq,io,eth0 with
whatever parameters are set on the jumper or NIC BIOS. The Linux Ethernet
HOWTO has sspecific instructions for NE2000 if you run into trouble
