Sorry, haven't been able to run uname -a.

Pentium II/266 System with Intel LX (Gateway 2000) Motherboard. 64 MB RAM. ISA 3Com EtherLink III (3c509b) with TP, no BNC.
FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE and 4.0-RELEASE has the same symptoms.
>Description:
During installation, the 3c509 is correctly found and initialized, but when it comes to Network configuration, it freezes after saying "Yes" to "Do you want to bring up the ep0 interface right now?". A cold reboot seems to be the only possible solution.
The same thing happens if I answer "No" to the above question and instead run ifconfig manually.
The same card works fine on Linux, OpenBSD, Windows for Workgroups 3.11/DOS and Windows 95.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run the 3.3/4.0 installation program, set up the nic and try bringing it up.
>Fix:
