I'm trying to install freebsd 4.1 release. I've tried with both a 3com 589c- and a 589d-card. The card is detected correct and the computer gets it IP address via dhcp. Before going on with the installation I try to ping the computer from a computer on the same LAN. It works but the ping time is quite high: 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=278 ttl=255 time=1309.083 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=279 ttl=255 time=299.087 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=280 ttl=255 time=1289.528 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=281 ttl=255 time=279.524 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=282 ttl=255 time=1269.630 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=283 ttl=255 time=259.628 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=284 ttl=255 time=1249.143 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=285 ttl=255 time=239.136 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=286 ttl=255 time=1229.061 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=287 ttl=255 time=219.065 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=288 ttl=255 time=1210.144 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=289 ttl=255 time=200.140 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=290 ttl=255 time=1191.023 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=291 ttl=255 time=181.024 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=292 ttl=255 time=1170.369 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=293 ttl=255 time=160.365 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=294 ttl=255 time=1151.380 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=295 ttl=255 time=141.383 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.2.180: icmp_seq=296 ttl=255 time=1131.518 ms Then I continue the installation. When the download of the distributions are about to start the TCP/IP stack seems to die. I've checked with ethereal and the last output from the computer is an arp-request for the DNS-server. What is the black magic I need to know to get a 3com 3c589c- or 3c589d-card working with FreeBSD 4.1? /jonas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
