More information: I removed the card from the bottom of the iMac and placed it into the cardbus/pci clot of my Gateway M275. I'm not sure if the system could recognize the card. I should be able to afford a "new"- read "different" or "used"- card in a few weeks. These are general questions: The directories of dev/mii and dev/wi are in /usr/src/sys; yet, why are these device nodes not created? There is the chain of devices such as gem0(parent)-> miibus0(child-parent)->ukphy0 alias wi/Hermes(Child-child); how does one bring up an interface seen on dmesg yet not recognized by the system? Another note: If you feel/believe that I have insulted you, let me know- through a private email- so that I may properly apologize through that medium or here.
