Sorry, dc(4) is not supported yet on sparc64; it needs to be busdmaified for this. There also seem to be a few minor endianess issues. I don't know offhand why the MAC address would be zeroed, possibly another different srom format (endianess issues will cause it to be wrong with the current code, but obviously not to be zeroed). > when i attach the rj45 to the ethernet port the status appears to be "no > carrier". Huh? The status seems to be detected correctly: > dc1: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 > media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) > status: active Or did you mean the other adapter? In any case, your machine will probably already crash when you assign an interface address to one of the dc's because of the problems mentioned above. - Thomas -- Thomas Moestl <tmoestl@gmx.net> http://www.tu-bs.de/~y0015675/ <tmm@FreeBSD.org> http://people.FreeBSD.org/~tmm/ PGP fingerprint: 1C97 A604 2BD0 E492 51D0 9C0F 1FE6 4F1D 419C 776C To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
