I have been trying to install FreeBSD 3.3 on a laptop which has no CD and only a pccard modem for networking. With the PAO floppys, the card is finally recognised and shown in the second vterminal during the PPP setup part of the installation: .... card1: assign sio3 iobase 0x2f8 irq 3 flags 0x80 sio: type 16550A logger: not found .... I don't know what the last line of that means, but thats what it shows. Then when the install program runs PPP, in that same terminal: .... ifconfig: interface ppp0 does not exist ppp0: not found exiting. .... I selected the right serial port, so what is happening, any ideas? I would greatly appreciate any help! I need to know how to get connected via my modem for the install!!!! It is a Zoom PCMCIA V.34C Faxmodem, if that makes any difference. Thanks, Phil To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
