Seems that dev/hme/if_hme_pci.h depends of machine/ofw_matchdep.h that not seems to be present on i386. Btw OF_getetheraddr() it only present on sparc64 platform so it is difficult to get ethernet address.... Maybe this should be great to support that kind of interface on non sparc64 platform as NetBSD (seems, but I have not tested yet) and Linux as well... >How-To-Repeat: echo "device hme" >> /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/YOURKERNEL and make a kernel as usual. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
