You can try /mit/netbsd/dev/machine-specific/new-drivers (look at the
README file there), but there are a couple of problems with it.
I hope to have the 1.2-based installation ready in the next week or so
(if you really want, you can test the install disks in
/mit/netbsd/release/athena-7.7.2/i386/nfsinst, but please don't be
surprised if things change on you), which will have much better
support for your card.
