Of course, I want to get FreeBSD running on it ASAP, but I've run into problems installing via the onboard HP Ethernet. The generic boot floppy kernel comes up fine without any messing around in the configurator, and everything looks good until I try to load the OS over NFS. I get the following error: lnc1: Heartbeat error -- SQE failed lnc1: Heartbeat error -- SQE failed .... Here is the kernel output re: ethernet when booting: lnc1 rev 37 int a irq 9 on pci:2:5:0 lnc1: NE2100 (C-LANCE) addr 0:60:b0:f1:59:a0 I've got NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 running on this machine, and networking works just fine. I'm not as familiar with NT as I am with Win 95, so I'm not sure how to get the Ethernet's IRQ, IO port and/or shared memory configuration out of NT. Anyone know? I'm not sure how to proceed. I searched the "questions" archive and found that on Tue, 28 Jul 1998 13:46:04, Doug White wrote to Guram Mosashvili : > > Is it good chois HP Kayak XU?? > > No, FreeBSD does not support it. Just exactly what about the HP Kayak doesn't FreeBSD support? The ethernet seems to be the only thing preventing me from proceeding. Does anyone have any pointers to offer? Thanks!
