Hi All, This is probably an elementary question for someone (please!). I want to put two ethernet cards into the one system, and I have two PCI NE2000 cards. Each one works individually perfectly well, but they do not work together. There is obviously a memory conflict of some sort, as the error message below is generated when ed0 is connected to the network, but ed1 is not! This is a fairly standard clone box running FreeBSD 4.1 from the BSDi CD-ROMs. The boot configuration procedure does not, of course, help here, since they are PCI cards, not ISA. Any help would be much appreciated, as I am currently at the end of a bit of wet string (as far as bandwidth is concerned) and can not consider browsing the "questions" database. Thank you Nov 16 10:37:25 rob /kernel: ed0: <NE2000 PCI Ethernet (RealTek 8029)> port 0xe400-0xe41f irq 12 at device 9.0 on pci0 Nov 16 10:37:25 rob /kernel: ed0: address 00:00:21:21:c9:0c, type NE2000 (16 bit) Nov 16 10:37:25 rob /kernel: ed1: <NE2000 PCI Ethernet (RealTek 8029)> port 0xe800-0xe81f irq 5 at device 10.0 on pci0 Nov 16 10:37:25 rob /kernel: ed1: address 00:00:21:e7:c2:06, type NE2000 (16 bit) ....
