FreeBSD 2.2.7 doesn't support 3C509B cards (3C509 only). You need a version >= 2.2.8. If your HD is EIDE, then you've got another reason to use 2.2.8 or 3.x: 2.2.7 doesn't support EIDE drives larger than 8 GB. Install 2.2.8 or 3.1 via FTP; being you an ISP, I'm sure you have a good Internet connection. --- Stefano Riva Software Engineer - Systems Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.
