I am trying to do the freebsd installation via ftp without any luck at all. The machine is a P75 with an Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 network card. The docs don't say if it's supported, it just says the Ether Express Pro. Anyway, device lp0 is found as a tcp/ip compatible device when it first boots up. However, I either get the message that lp0 couldn't be configured, after getting a list of 2 ppp comm ports or the lp0 device. Why isn't it configuring lp0 properly? The io address and irq are correct. The machine is on a LAN connected to the internet. Also, if I boot up with -c and try to enable or disable, or change any settings at all for the lp0 device, it's not recognized. The ix or ix0 or whatever device for the etherexpress is recognized with all the proper io & irq settings, but I never see that in the list of options to make the ftp connection. Is this workable or should I just go buy the cdrom? Thanks. Chad
