The target system is a Pentium MMX 266 with 64MB or ram, two 1G SCSI drives on an adaptec 2940, an IDE CD-ROM and a 3c509 network card. The source media is the German CD-ROM set from Lehmanns. (I'm living in Germany and this is the most easily available distribution.) (I know that 4.4 is now out but I run a website that is hosted on a 4.3 machine and, in order to test things before they go live, I want the same OS etc.) I cut two floppies from the CD-ROM distribution, put the kernel floppy into the target machine (along with the first CD from the distribution set) and hit the go button. When the system attempt to book I get a panic with the following details: ifmedia_set: no match for 0x23/0xffffffff panic: ifmedia_set Immediately before that, the system appeared to recognise the 2940 and the 3c509. Any ideas? -- John O'Connor jpoc@jpoc.org http://www.jpoc.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
