First, the keyboard (ATKBD) causes the boot process on 8.2 to fail. There is a fix, but it has not been included in 8-Stable, so installing 8.0 and then upgrading while installing the required fix would work. It did, but it means I have 8.0 and I quickly learned that 8.0 did not recognize either my wireless or wired network cards. This makes upgrading a bit difficult. I'd expected issues with the wireless, but I had no idea the wired Ethernet world be a problem. I am hoping that I can get one of the existing drivers to work by adding the appropriate PCI IDs, but I don't know if it will work or which driver to try. The output of 'pciconf -lv' shows: none4@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x819510ec chip=0x817610ec rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor' class = network and none1@pci0:0:25:0: class=0x020000 card=0x21ce17aa chip=0x15028086 rev=0x04 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' class = network subclass = ethernet This was transcribed by hand, but I think it is accurate. Do I have any hope? I can replace the wireless card, but the wired Ethernet is of much greater concern. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
