Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to specify the
irq and the address for the network card from
some type of kernel boot configuration file.
And if yes, how.
I have read the handbook, but in there it is stated that one
needs to configure all the network card related parameters
during kernel compilation.
Unfortunately, at the moment I do not have enough
space to build the kernel, I am just using whatever
came with 3.3. Everytime my computer boots,
I see that the kernel is expecting my network card
be at the address of x280 while my card is at x300.
I understand, that I could just configure the card to be at 280,
but I would like to investigate the possible options before doing that.
I know that in Linux it is a lilo configuration parameter, but
since it is different for FreeBSD, I do not know how to do that.


Thanks in advance for any info,
Vladislav
