If you have an Intel Etherexpress 8/16 it will work, but you need to set
it up for 8-bit mode whilst in a 16-bit slot first, using the software
that comes with it IIRC. I've heard that most older 3com cards will
work in an 8-bit slot if you put them there, but I haven't tried it.
I've got a couple of Artisoft AE-2 cards here--they've got a 16-bit
ISA edge connector on them but they'll work just fine on 8 bit ISA
bus. I can't believe they were the only ones that would work that
way.
