Hi, I would like to determine the unit number of my network cards, make the device on pci0:16 appear always as mtnic0 and pci0:9 appear always as mtnic1. # pciconf -l | grep mtnic mtnic0@pci0:19:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x001715b3 chip=0x636815b3 rev=0xa0 hdr=0x00 mtnic1@pci0:16:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x001715b3 chip=0x636815b3 rev=0xa0 hdr=0x00 Is it done by /boot/device.hints? if so, how? I've tried: hint.mtnic.0.at="pci0:16" hint.mtnic.1.at="pci0:19" but it doesn't work. They keep switching upon reboot. I'm using FreeBSD 7.0. Thanks Yony
