In message <20001206094904.B26244@stat.Duke.EDU>you write:
}Sorry!?  That is a good thing.  I thought Dell pretty much stuck 'em
}in everything.

well, then i guess im lucky :-), btw they did give me a 3com megaherz lan+56k 
modem, which the lan part works ok with freebsd, did not check out the modem
yet.

}Which ever one works for you :)  Seriously, they are different

}
}Adding irq 10 to /etc/pccard.conf forces ep0 to attach using irq 10.

}Putting irq 10 in the pcic line of the kernel has the pccard bus/bridge
}interrupting on irq 10, and you have to use a different (and free) irq
}for the NIC.

ok, lets see if i catch the drift. in my case, the boot process hangs while
checking out the devices, so /etc/pccard.conf is no solution since that
gets processed later (/etc/rc.pccard), correct?

some more fiddling later:
i think the problem is with the pcic0 (in my case VLSI 82C146) and not
with the ethernet cards.
