Installing 2.2.2 release over ftp with a 3C900-COMBO Etherlink XL PCI network interface gives me a headache. On the device list, the vx0 device is listed under PCI-devices, mentioning the 3C590/3C595 cards, but not mine. FreeBSD detects my card properly on startup though: vx0 <3COM 3C900 Etherlink XL PCI> rev 0 int a irq 5 on pci0:16 utp/avi/bnc[*utp*] address:blahblahblah which looks good, yes? On connecting with FTP to a suitable source for FreeBSD, trying with a name gives me a DNS lookup failure - trying with an IP address gives me an "unknown error". I know the card sucks, but it's only temporary. Thanks Simon Lindgren biz: lindgren@istudio.no priv: simon@lindgren.no info: finger lindgren@istudio.no
