[parisc-linux] 712/80 ext. network card

[Chuck Slivkoff]

There's no ISA slot in the 712. There was a special interface card 
(A4014A) that added a second network port and a second serial port. It 
is documented in this manual:

   http://www.hp.com/workstations/support/archive/manuals/A2615-90602.pdf

Good luck trying to find one. The only time I saw these adapters was 
when the 712 was used as the console to V-class servers. The B-class 
(with PCI & GSC slots) soon replaced the 712 for this solution.

I wanted to do the same with one of my 712's, but have not been able to 
find one of these adapters. :-(
