Its certainly not for sure. As a datapoint to add to the uncertainty, the SunFire V440 has 4 motherboard NICs - two come before the PCI slots and two after (so adding a PCI-based Cassini nic moves ce2 from the MB to the plugin). Even slot numbering on larger boxes (with multiple physical PCI buses) can be non (or counter) intuitive. Also note that FreeBSD has also changed its PCI probe order at least once in the past (effectively re-numbering devices). --=20 Peter Jeremy --82I3+IH0IqGh5yIs Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAknwCn0ACgkQ/opHv/APuIfMyACdG7+ZxXKkkeBFWlheR/PdNVCQ hcsAoMMyXk1Ofsdq29atwojhXiQVF9o5 =yHpq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --82I3+IH0IqGh5yIs--
