When I try to load if_fxp and if_dc via /boot/loader.conf, they print the verbose information as if they load, but when the kernel boots, it turns out they didn't load, so I have to manually load them and re-run the network setup scripts. My /boot/loader.conf looks like this: #Load NIC modules miibus_load="YES" if_fxp_load="YES" if_dc_load="YES" The order of if_fxp or if_dc makes no difference. If I exclude the miibus line, if_dc will load, but if_fxp will not, and miibus will remain loaded as well. With it included, neither if_dc nor if_fxp will load, and miibus will remain loaded. Both NICs probe, attach, and work fine when I manually load the modules. Here's the relevant dmesg output during kernel boot: pci1: <unknown card> (vendor=0x8086, dev=0x1229) at 4.0 irq 11 pci1: <unknown card> (vendor=0x1317, dev=0x0985) at 10.0 irq 9 The first is the card that attaches to if_fxp. Here's the relevant dmesg output when I do the manual load: fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0xd000-0xd01f mem 0xde000000-0xde0fffff,0xe0000000-0xe0000fff irq 11 at device 4.0 on pci1 fxp0: Ethernet address 00:a0:c9:1f:3b:50 nsphy0: <DP83840 10/100 media interface> on miibus0 nsphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto dc0: <ADMtek AN985 10/100BaseTX> port 0xd400-0xd4ff mem 0xde100000-0xde1003ff irq 9 at device 10.0 on pci1 dc0: Ethernet address: 00:04:5a:59:7c:a8 miibus1: <MII bus> on dc0 ukphy0: <Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface> on miibus1 ukphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto After the manual load and running the network scripts again, everything works just fine.
