hi everybody
i've a laptop (gericom piii 1.2ghz, 386mb, via chipset) with a poor bios
3 pci devices (firewire, tulip, ltwinmodem) have irq=0 in there
pci-config-space
(i can't turn off plug&play - it's really a simple bios)
when i start the laptop and boot freebsd 4.4 it stops with the following
line
..
..
pci0 <unknown card> (vendor=0x11c1, dev=0x5811) at 13.0 irq 0

linux lspci output gives me "00:0d.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Lucent
Microelectronics: Unknown device 5811"

when i reboot from win2k (pci devices are initialized) i can boot freebsd
and end in sysinstall (as it should be)

what can i do to install freebsd?
can i prevent the freebsd kernel from "finding" the firewire device? don't
need that anyway.

thanks
robert

ps. sorry for my english :(
