Ramdan > > ramdan@iname.com In either case(PCI/ISA), its the 'ed' driver. In my experience, the NE2000 driver uses ed0 and ed1 for ISA(exclusively?) and ed2 and ed3 for PCI(exclusively?). To get my 2.2.5 boxen up with 2 PCI variants, I needed to add two lies for ed0 *and* ed1 *without* any options set for either. The driver then lookes for PCI cards and finds them. -Chuck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
