I finally managed to find out my major problem with the via-rhine
driver. :-) Two minutes ago, it did configure itself via BOOTP, loaded
a linux kernel and booted it. I added my VIA 6102 card to config.c. I
did some more work on via-rhine.c, but that did not seem to be
essential on my problem. If anybody wants my modified version of
via-rhine.c, I would continue to work on it and publish it, when it is
finished.

73, Mario
