But opens another problem where the card was configures by DOS, FreeBSD or similar before a soft-boot and if_ed.c grabs your ethernet with wrong params and no IRQ. The right solution is to have a call into pccard before to reset everything and after to configure it. The REAL right solution would be to be able to say "I can use any IRQ in this mask, give me one when you have one". -- Poul-Henning Kamp | phk@FreeBSD.ORG FreeBSD Core-team. http://www.freebsd.org/~phk | phk@login.dknet.dk Private mailbox. whois: [PHK] | phk@tfs.com TRW Financial Systems, Inc.
