I'm trying to install FreeBSD over an FTP connection and I can't get the
installation program to recognize my Ethernet card.  When it tries to
initialize the connection, it says "Error configuring device lp0".

I have an Intel Etherexpress Pro/10 set on IRQ5, Address 0x300.  I ran
the -c config utility and chose the Etherexpress driver and modified the
IRQ and base address settings appropriately.  Also, when it asks for the
memory address, does it mean the Flash Address, because that's what I
tried.  I'm positive my network settings (IP, Gateway, etc.) are
correct, so the error must be in the ethernet card's hardware
configuration.

Other info: I have a 486/66/8MB, 1parallel,2serial,2IDE
HDD,SoundBlaster16,Ethernet card.  Pretty standard config.

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.
