I've set up the gnutools, and eCos 2.0. I can select templates from the

isn't an intel model, but instead an AMD pcnet.
You can't just pull in the pcnet driver. It has to have been, essentially,
ported to the board (or perhaps in this case, a PC) in question. This lets
the driver know where to access the board in RAM, or if it should detect it
with PCI etc.
That's the source of your problems.

Sorry it isn't simpler for your particular case!
