Excellent, thanks.

Yup, the MAC address is correct now.  No link light, but that is to be
expected with the current change.

Wow, it looks like 3com has really made this EEPROM as difficult as
possible.

I found the page on the 3com site where they provide technical
documentation on their cards.  It seems woefully out of date without
even a mention of a mini-PCI card or any card with the EEPROM at
offset 0x30.  Do you have any docs on their newer cards?
