I have done a little homework and I am resubmitting my question with more information and i hope someone can help this time around. I am building a FreeBSD 5.1 box for a client using a fairly new ASUS Mainboard, that SHOULD according to the HARDWARE.TXT file on my installer CDROM, work with all the hardware chip-sets concerned. precisely, an "Intel 82562EZ LAN PHY". These are the relevant lines i get from "pciconf -lv" : none3@pci1:8:0: class=0x2020000 card=0x80f81043 chip=0x10508086 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' class = network subclass = ethernet AND this is what i get from "dmesg | more" : pci1: on pcib1 pci1: at device 8.0 (no driver attached) is there a way i might just install some drivers without reinstalling the whole system? I think someone has made some recently, although i am not familiar with the procedure of obtaining and installing them. I have experience installing from ISO images and adding the odd port but not much beyond that. Here is the link to the mailing.freebsd.cvs-current thread im not sure about: http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&th=c2cc18e7fd2e3621&rnum= 1 any info is greatly appreciated always.

I really like the project and I decided to study it and learn from it. I have not been able to install it in my PC: Motherboard: M754LMR (http://www.pcchips.com.tw/M754LMR.html): it include onboard "Highest Performance, 128-bit 3D AGP Graphics Accelerator with 32MB(MAX.) frame buffer embedded in North bridge, up to 1920x1200 16M resolution; AGP Rev. 2.0 Spec. Compliant", Video adapter (onboard): NVIDIDA Aladdin TNT2 Devices (onboard): ALi M1533 PCI to ISA bridge ALi M1621 CPU to PCI bridge ALi M1621 PCI to AGP bridge Processor: Celeron 600MHz Memory: 192MB RAM (-16MB taken to video adapter NVIDIDA Aladdin TNT2 ) Hard Drive: 4GB The problem I'm having is that when the kernel start loading it give me the following error. ... pci0: on pcib0 agp0: mem 0xd8000000-0xdbffffff at device 0.0 on pci0 panic: contigmalloc1: size must not be 0 Uptime: 0s Automatic reboot in 15 seconds I have search for a posible solution but I have not found anything helpfull. I flash the EPROM of the motherboard with the last version (ftp://ftp.pcchips.com.tw/BIOS/M754LMR/) and it din't work. I'm getting the same error for FreeBSD 4.8 release or 5.1 current. Can someone tell me if this motherboard and configuration is not supported by FreeBSD? What can I do to get my FreeBSD running? Thank you in advance, Guillermo
