The NE2000 driver is in a module. Use the "modconf" tool to configure it, or "modprobe ne io=0xXXXX", where XXXX is the I/O bus address of the card in hex. You might be able to make it work without the "io=" part, I wasn't sure if that is possible or not from a glance at the driver source.
We couldn't fit all of the devices in one kernel and still have it boot on
a 4MB system. Thus, almost all network card drivers are modules.
