I prefer doing an FTP install, so I went through the steps, and the first weird thing I noticed is that the GENERIC kernel booted with an entry for ep0 and ep1, even though I only have a single 3c509 ISA card; I then entered in the appropriate net info for ep0, and I was rewarded with a system hang. Hmm. I started over, and tried setting up ep1 just for fun. It worked, but now I was getting horrendously slow transfer rates. Hmm again. Finally, I decided to install off of my fresh subscription CDs. Everything worked, but I still got the ep0 and ep1 appearing in the GENERIC kernel during boot. I noticed it said something like "unable to wake eeprom" next to the ep0 line (actually, lines - there were several like this) during boot; ep1 was a happy camper, however. After setting up ep1, transfers were really slow, as before. How do I go about solving this mess, starting with forcing the system to realize I only have a single ep NIC card? Thanks muchly for any help you can offer. Forgive me if this has already been answered; I looked through the mailing list archives, but I did not find this there (and I am not actually subscribed to this mailing list). -Davis "He who knows best knows how little he knows." -Thomas Jefferson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
