It seem that I have resolved the problem. Yes, I've read 8139too.txt and
I thought to recheck my kernel 2.4.4 configuration.
It looked this:
CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y
CONFIG_NET_PCI=y
CONFIG_8139TOO=m
CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO=m
CONFIG_8139TOO_TUNE_TWISTER=y
CONFIG_8139TOO_8129=m

Then, I've disabled PIO, and older RTl...
Looked like this:
CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y

CONFIG_NET_PCI=y

# CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO is not set

CONFIG_8139TOO=m

CONFIG_8139TOO_TUNE_TWISTER=y

# CONFIG_8139TOO_8129 is not set

And... Yeah, It works.
The ifconfig is:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:29:9A:CB:62
inet addr:192.168.0.1 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Problem resolved. :)
