OK, I've just about spent too much time on this so I thought it was time to ask
for help. FreeBSD 3.0, upgraded to 3-stable (3.4? -- how can I tell?). 32MB,
266MHz AMD K6-2, 4.2GB hard drive, FreeBSD is on a 1.5GB partition. Inserted a
10Mbps LinkSys EtherPCI, been having trouble getting FreeBSD to see it.
Recompiled the kernel, left all the possible PCI network card chipsets in there.
FAQ says the EtherPCI is based on a DEC<something>. I think the device is de0.
The boot-up probe doesn't see it, although I *think* it used to see it as a
ProLink NE2000, until I recompiled my kernel, at ed1 (?).  What do I have to do
to get FreeBSD to see my network card? Thanks in advance.
