Compaq hasn't implemented the configuration space access registers according to the PCI specs, and this causes no end of trouble ... } I built a kernel on another system, adding some printf's to } /sys/pci/pcisupp.c in the chipset_probe function. It detects a PCI bus } but doesnot see any devices on it (as far as I can interpret the code). If you can rebuild your kernel (as it appears to be the case :) please get the file /sys/i386/isa/pcibus.c from some FreeBSD-current mirror. It contains enhanced PCI bus probe, which OUGHT to support your system. Please let me know if it fails. In this case, please send all lines starting with "pcibus_setup" from a VERBOSE boot (i.e. enter "-v" at the "Boot: " prompt).
