Hello everyone I recently bought BSD 4.1 Desktop Edition. The install worked just fine, = as far as it went, it just didn't go far enough. I need to connect to my = office network to do anything - print, surf, whatever - but I have an = Olicom 3118 tokenring NIC in this box. =20 I understand that to get the Olicom working, I need to build new kernel. = I created my own configuration file after studying LINT and starting with = GENERIC. I think I have the correct files in the correct places. config, = make depend, make and make install all work without any fatal or serious = errors (an occasional warning comes up in make depend). When I boot, all the devices I have defined in the config come up, except = for the Olicom. I get this instead=20 >> unknown0: <Olicom Token-Ring ISA 16/4> at port 0xa00-0xa1f irq 3 drq1 = on ISA0 This agrees with the IRQ and DMA I have set using the CFG3118 utiity from = Olicom. Having browsed the tokenring mailing list archive, I have seen comments = that the ISA cards have had support dropped, to be replaced later, after = the PCI card drivers came out. I hope this is not the case and that = instead I am doing something stupidly wrong. Conversely, must I do a = MAKEDEV? (which I have already tried to no success, because the code = doesn't have any references to oltr in it) or even a mknod ? If so, = could someone provide me with the parameters for it ? I appreciate y'all (as they say down here in Texas) shedding some light on = this for me. Thanks !
