This is 4.0R, freshly installed. The symptoms are that the dc driver reports watchdog timeouts and no network connections can be made. Using the de driver instead of dc works fine. The MX5 has a 10baseT/10base2 bulkhead mounted. It is also possible to have a 100baseT bulkhead (I have one on my MiataGL) that is connected to another connector on the PCI riser card. Initially I assumed that maybe the 21143 can't 'see' that it has a 10Mbit-only bulkhead mounted. So I set the SRM ewa0_mode to 10baseT. This does not make a difference. I also tried setting 10Mbit mode in rc.conf: ifconfig_dc0="inet 192.168.200.24 netmask 255.255.255.0 media 10baseT/UTP" This also did not make a difference. Interesting side note: de claims it is a 21142, dc claims it is a 21143 chip. I am not sure if this is relevant. dc driver boot messages: Apr 6 21:00:40 mx5 /kernel: dc0: port 0x8000-0x807f mem 0 x80850000-0x8085007f irq 0 at device 3.0 on pci0 Apr 6 21:00:40 mx5 /kernel: dc0: interrupting at CIA irq 0 Apr 6 21:00:40 mx5 /kernel: dc0: Ethernet address: 00:00:f8:75:3c:6a Apr 6 21:00:40 mx5 /kernel: miibus0: on dc0 Apr 6 21:00:40 mx5 /kernel: dcphy0: on miibus0 Apr 6 21:00:40 mx5 /kernel: dcphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto Apr 6 21:00:40 mx5 /kernel: dc0: supplying EUI64: 00:00:f8:ff:fe:75:3c:6a ...

Please note that since GENERIC uses the dc driver one cannot install over the network using bootfloppys. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
