Two network interfaces. I think getting the XMI bus under control isn't
all that hard. Also, I don't fear the BI bus at the moment. However, I
cannot find useful documentation for the DEBNI. So does anybody have
some docs for it around? ...or shall I try to disassemble it's firmware.
Since the box can boot off it, the required bits should be there.

I also found some comments that the software interface of the DEBNI is a
lot easier to use than that of the DEBNA, the previous version of this
card. (Rumors are that it's only a different ROM, so you can easily
upgrade a DEBNA to a DEBNI).

MfG, JBG
