root@win2k:/usr/src/sys/compile/WIN2K i386
>Description:
This machine has an Intel EtherExpress PRO/10 ISA (ex) card installed, set to IO 0x210, IRQ 9 (it would not probe successfully in PnP mode, FWIW). When I boot the machine with the Ethernet cable attached and link good, the card and driver work fine, but when I boot without it connected, I get this:

ex0: <Intel Pro/10+> at port 210-21f irq 9 on isa0
ex0: Manual config, 16-bit bus, board id 0x203, stepping 0x0
ifmedia_set: no match for 0x25/0xffffffff
panic: ifmedia_set


>How-To-Repeat:
Install an ex-compatible ISA Ethernet card, set as above, and try booting with the Ethernet cable disconnected.
