Subject: Can't FTP during install Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Summary: Keywords: I am having big problems installing FreeBSD. Quite a strange one actually.... I have managed to install the kernel and the io disk..on the hard disk of my machine. However as soon as I start ftp'ing the binaries it hangs up. The connection is established and the username is accepted. As soon as I press return the connection hangs. I can press control Z kill the task After that I can't send any network traffic out of the machine. Also I can establish telnet sessions but no data is sent. I can ping other hosts perfectly. I have booted up the machine with /kernel -c and configured the NE2000 with the following combinations. port 0x300 and 0x360 irq 5, 10 12 iomem 0x0 and 0xd0000 I have also disabled all other devices which could conflict. I have tried both a original NE2000 and a clone NE2000. Does the NE2000 need an i/o mem setting or any flags? BTW. ifconfig and route do not not report any error any time outs. I have just un-installed NetBSD which I've used for a few months and did not have any of these problems. So I do not believe I have a hardware conflict. Inside the machine there is a 387sx, a Maxtor IDE 340MB, a multi i/o card, an 8 bit VGA card, Heeeelp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I believe that I need a Kernel compiling and it being sent as a disk image to me. I am currently trying linux and it runs at about half the speed of NetBSD and the networking around a lot worse. Max FTP speed 70KB.... NetBSD 250KB-700KB. Regards, Mike.
