Alright, so this is a Xircom PCMCIA card with a Compaq label on it. There
are two possible problems (and I'm guessing here since I didn't write this
driver):
1) The media is set wrong, and you need to specify the right media
using ifconfig options when sysinstall asks you.
Media is not set wrong because it was not set at all. It was DHCP
task to provide whatever neccesary.It failed.
2) Some other device is using IRQ 5 on your machine. You need to either
turn off whatever hardware is using IRQ 5, or convince FreeBSD to
assign a different IRQ to the card.
No other device is using IRQ 5 (besides even if . Why I was not informed
about it?
Why was irq 5 choosen by system silently without warning me? I guess it
is not
so desperately hard to find whether the irq is already used or not)
So I do not see any senseful suggestions so far.
