Where do I adjust the maxtransfer rate?


HDToolbox -> Partition Drive -> select partition -> Change...

You need to do this once for each partition.

In 3.1 and below you have to enable "Advanced Options"  for "Change..." to become visible. You also have to press enter in each text field you change, otherwise the change will not be taken.

Good values which work on almost every controller are Mask = 0x7fffffff and MaxTransfer = 0x1fe00.

Bye,

Installed MMCD files


Do you receive the regular updates from Elbox ? Did you install the latest files ? Perhaps your versions are outdated.

Attached settings to voodoo


Did you use the Screenmode prefs program to change the Workbench screen mode to Voodoo ? I think that the graphics environment has to be initilized for FastEthernet to work.

ran pciinfo and it sees both voodoo card and ethernet card


It will see them both already after installing the MMCD files. This does not mean that the drivers are installed correctly.

iface_init could not open DEVS:networks/FastEthernet.device unit 0


Does it also mention a return code (other than -1 which just means "open failed") ?
