You will have to deal with the Plug n Play. 1- You can try to have the BIOS do it. 2- Break into the bootloader and use it to config the cards at boot. 3- Or (my favorite) boot into DOS from a floppy and use the 3Com utilities to hardcode the 2 cards to appropriate IRQ's, DMA's, etc. You have to provide ifconfig data in rc.conf eventually, but first your kernel has recognize the card. > From: jahanur > Date: Tue, 26 Oct 1999 22:58:46 -0500 (CDT) > > Hi, > I have installed another 3Com NIC to my existing 3com NIC, but I dont see > system recognized it as "ep1".
