Specs:
Netger FA411 (NE2000 based) 16-bit
Freebsd 4.6

The card detects fine, but i can't get it to work on the network.  I get a /kernel: ed1: device timeout error when i try to configure it.  I am confiiguring via sysinstall.  When i do IPv6 coonfig i get the timeout error.  Then DHCP config doesn't get anything.  After i exit (weather or not i specifiy IP/ netmask/ gateway/ etc. in systinstall ed1 now has an IP of 0.0.0.

Right after i boot ifconfig ed1 returns:
ed1: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 00:80:c6:f6:b7:21

After sysinstall:
ed1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 
inet6 fe80::240:f4ff:fe1c:2c5e%ed1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255
ether 00:80:c6:f6:b7:21

I also have the faith0 driver in sysinstall, but i don't want to use that, do i?
