Hello,

some days ago I aked here about my installation troubles
with FreeBSD, various PAO boot floppies and a Fiberline Ethernet
PCMCIA card.

Well, I gave up on that and took the lp0 route.

Now I have 2.2.8-RELEASE on the Laptop in question, and can't get
the card to work, either. It is the 'driver allocation failed'
problem which hints, according to net.wisdom derived from dejanews,
to a resource conflict.

But there is none - at least I don't see it. There is no fancy 
builtin hardware. Just Ide controller, 1 Serial, 1 Parallel, Floppy,
Keyboard, Ps2 Mouse. 

I append a few diagnostic points - maybe someone here has an Idea.
