I've been installing 4.1-R on a lot of laptops, since this code was : SO much better than the old one on pre4, so I thought it would run like : a charm :) I use to set it to 0xd4000 for memory and IRQ 11. Has worked : with a buncg of different laptops, old Toshiba, IBM 770E, Dell Latitude : and others, but not so this time. Maybe I just have to get all the parts : of 4.2-RELEASE, and give it a try. You might also want to look in the BIOS on this puppy. Things to look for would be: PNP OS = YES ===> set to NO Supported OS = Win9x/Win2k ===> set to Other I think Toshiba has an option either from within Windoze or the BIOS to put the pcic in so-called "legacy mode" .. I think this is what we need with FreeBSD until NEWCARD makes its debut :) : > You could try installing 4.2-R using : > : > ftp://ftp.se.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.2-RELEASE/ : : Sorry, I'm behind a firewall, but I'll try the floppies to see if the : card is properly detected. Thanks for the help so far. Hmmm... sysinstall ought to work with passive ftp.
