If you go to
<http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/v4r4eng.htm>, and
take 'Category bookshelves for V4R4', then '2 Planning and Installation',
you'll find Setting Up 940x Model 150: SA41-5144 and Setting Up 940x Model
170: SA41-5145, which both have instructions on installing this stuff.

There is also a PDF document on installing ethernet cards in 170s and 250s.
Found it at
<http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/v5r1/ic2924/v5r1hwpdf/index.htm>,
something called the iSeries 400 Installation and Service Library.
