I've just installed FreeBSD 2.0 on my 33Mhz 486 Gatewary box. Everything is running fine *except* I can't seem to get the OS to see my 3com 3c503 card. I read the release notes, noted FreeBSD FAQ #8.4 and went out and got the O'Reilly book on BSD. From what I read my /etc/netstart file handles the ifconfig'ing for me, assumming the autoconfigure probe sees an interface that's supported and present. During the initial boot phase I see 'ed0 not found at 0x280' and 'ed1 not found at 0x300'. I've check my kernel configuration file and the pseudo-device ether is definitely set along with 'ed0' and 'ed1'. Coming from a System V background, this handling of the network interface is somewhat baffling 8-/ Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Bob
