Does the line device lnc0 at isa? port 0x280 net irq 10 drq 0 vector lncintr in GENERIC count for this? If so, i'll leave for a business trip tomorrow, and i know that this customer is also using HP Vectras which come with a builtin Lance-derived PCI ethernet adaptor. While i know that an older version of FreeBSD runs on them fine using the PCI addresses in the ISA driver (you certainly remember, Stefan), i can also stick a plain installation floppy there and see whether it will detect the card. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
