One way would be to do by hand what MPTS would do.
Use MPTS to add some network driver (doesn't really matter which),
then edit \IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI to replace stuff from that network card
with the corresponding entries for IBMPRISM. You can find the right
parameters in \IBMCOM\macs\IBMPRISM.NIF. Then, edit \config.sys to
replace the driver with the IBMPRISM driver.

However, I can understand that the above scares you off.
Another idea might be to use MPTS to first delete each and every entry
(network card and protocols), then try adding the IBMPRISM driver.
