[RULE] does Slinky detect do ISA?

Hi Drose,
	IFAIK, detection of ISA cards depends on isa-pnp functionality being 
available.  I do not have an ISA-only machine nor any ISA nics to test 
with, so I can not definitively answer as to whether it should work or not.

	Can you tell us which ISA NICS you have?  If you do not know the type, 
can you post to the list whatever is written on the cards?  Particularly 
useful would be any strings of text that start with "FCC ID."

Thanks
CDR
