I don't know specifically about FreeBSD, but with BSD/OS, I've had to take the 3com disk, boot dos, and disable the plug and play ability on the card. Once I did that, it's worked fine under BSD/OS. And now that I think about it, that fixed it for FreeBSD as well. On Thu, 2 Nov 1995, Jim Swain wrote: > I have a general question that I do not seem to be able to find any > documentation.
