X-Url: http://www.freebsd.org/support.html Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I recently picked up an AcerFrame 1000 EISA system. This appears to be a development server given to the old UltraStor corp. It was used to develop their 124 Raid board... I have a 3c579 EISA NIC in the system. On a boot (release 2.1) the kernel (w/ 3com 3c5x9 support) will see the card and report the addresses, etc. However the driver appears to look for it at a very specific port (set in the -c options?). My problem is the EISA ports are much "higher"... and I can not find a place to set the kernel to "look" that high. Is there a way to get my 3c579 recognized or should I start searching for an ISA version of the card? Thanx for any info, and hope this ends up in the right place...
