> I have a 3com 3c589b ethernet card that appears to be recognized as zp0 > but is not configurable if I run ifconfig -a. How do you know it's recognized? It's possible that the configuration values stored in the card's EEPROM are different than what the FreeBSD driver expects. The zp0 driver is not a 'PCMCIA/generic' driver, so it uses the card's own built-in configuratio (port, IRQ, IOMEM) values to configure the card, similar to a 'point driver' in DOS. > Under PAO-2.2.2 it was configured as ep0. The default FreeBSD boot floppy doesn't have generic PCCARD support in it. You need to build a special kernel with PCCARD support (which will cause your ethernet driver to be ep0, like in PAO.) > I also have a Motorola Montana Modem that does not get > recognized at all. See above. The boot floppy laptop drivers are zp0/ze0, and work with the 3Com 589 and IBM Info-mover cards respectively. No other laptop/PCMCIA cards are supported on the boot floppy. Nate
