Custom, but only a couple of buffer size parameters have been changed and had to add the old ISA parameters to ep to get the 3Com NIC to work. > >>Copyright (c) 1992-2001 The FreeBSD Project. >>Copyright (c) 1979, 1980, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 >> The Regents of the University of California.

There are 2 SCSI disks 8 and 4 GB. 1 Adaptec SCSI controller, 1 Netgear 10/100 NIC, 1 3Com 10 NIC. 1 SCSI CDROM. The duplicate IRQs are fascinating. The dc0 was not on 5 for the next to last boot when I switched the 3Com ep definition to specify the ISA parameters. However, this delay problem has existed for at least 3 years. We don't boot the machine but about once a year for OS upgrades so its not a significant issue, but I don't want to have bad hardware bring me down at an inconvenient time. These machines are all remote and unattended. > > >Jeff Mountin - jeff@mountin.net >Systems/Network Administrator >FreeBSD - the power to serve -- -- Doug To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
