Here's the boot log: ... Jan 15 15:08:41 test kernel: txp0: <3Com 3cR990B-TXM Etherlink with 3XP Processor> port 0x2080-0x20ff mem 0x42000000-0x4200007f irq 11 at device 14.0 on pci0 Jan 15 15:08:41 test kernel: txp0: not waiting for boot Jan 15 15:08:41 test kernel: device_attach: txp0 attach returned -1 ... Here's the related pciconf: txp0@pci0:0:14:0: class=0x020000 card=0x100010b7 chip=0x990410b7 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 vendor = '3COM Corp, Networking Division' device = '3CR990B-TM-X Etherlink 10/100 with 3XP Processor' class = network subclass = ethernet If you're interested in fixing this problem, you might have a look at the driver included in the Linux kernel - it works fine with this card. Unfortunately I no longer need to use those cards, and can afford to spend any time on this issue, what I could help is with testing. I could also provide an SSH access to a machine with this card installed, if this would be of any help resolving the issue. Kind regards, Doichin
