I thinking about running Linux on a system consisting of a MVME-2300

The PMC doesn't have it's own ethernet interface and I would like to
be able to communicate with the carrier board over the PCI bus using
IP.

Has anyone done any work on a network driver for a system like that?

MontaVista's Hard Hat Net is a PCI shared memory "Ethernet" driver.  It
relies on having a 21554 bridge to detect nodes and gather information
about them.  It is modular enough that you can add a different detection
method for your 860 PMC's PCI bridge.
