Hello - It is a generic SMC with a dec 21041 chip. Linux recognizes it with the "tulip" driver and all the other installs of FBSD have used the de0 driver to see it. It is possible that I either have the wrong floppy (I used the boot.flp and mfsroot.flp from 4.2-RELEASE) or perhaps need to tweak the setup menu options?

I can set up the disk slices with no # problem but when I go to setup the network connection all I am given is # slip, parallel and ppp connection options. I have an ethernet card and a # cable connection that I have setup and running with win2k and have always # (back to FBSD v. 3.2) been able to set it up in FBSD with no problem. At # system probe the kernel sees the card (as da0 as I recall) but the setup # portion doesn't. Any pointers, reading material or suggestions will be # greatfully accepted. Thanks in advance, Jeff Phillips What kind of network card do you have installed in the machine (make, model, etc.)? -- Linh Pham [lplist@closedsrc.org] // 404b - Brain not found To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
