The BootP request of the new card does not make sense. Maybe the driver
does not work correctly with the 10B7/9050. There is a lot of "cb a5"
instead of the request data, probably filled in by the card to get to
the minimum packet size of 60 bytes.

Does DHCP work with the old card (and the new release) ? The old request
looks ok.
