Hi, there guys! First I wonna thank you for what you are doing! That's great & really helpfull! But I got a problem that's not covered in your FAQs. So I decided to write you (hoping smb will read it :-). I'm trying to put FreeBSD on my 386 DX40(4mb) & connect it via NE1000compat. to my Pentium133(24mb). I built a new kernel for Pent, compiled it & it worked. But when I built a new kernel for 386 & installed it my comp (386) hanged up after a string:
npx0 at 0xf0-0xff irq 13 flags 0x1 on motherboard.
 I know this option is mandatory, so I can't disable it & it's about coprocessor. I have 386DX so there is a hardware coprocessor. I disabled MATH_EMULATION in kernel. It didn't help. I enabled it - it didn't help niether. So what's the problem - I don't get it. Please answer me, cause there is no BSD guru around in my town (I'm from Russia).
                    With all my respect
                       Vladimir.
