The card is connected to a Netgear Switch, and Ive tried switching cables with the same result.

Do you mean in the the first menu (Kernel config menu, where I can choose Visual/CLI or auto)? Ive removed all conflicting networks (eg All), in the Visual menu; but this hasnt helped me. Ive tried to disable the ed0 device (ed0 seems to have the same irq setting as the de0 has during loading), but this didnt help. How can I setup the ifconfig? The only options in the CLI mode is change IRQ, memory adresses and Flags. The install process has never gotten into the sysinstall program, it always locks after the "de0: autosense failed" is displayed. > de%d: not configured; 21140 pass 1.1 required (%d.%d found) Nope, havent seen that one. But here is the output for my card: de0: port =xec80-0xecff mem 0xffbefc00-0xffbefc7f irq 10 at device 17,0 on pci0 de0: ACCTON EN1207 21140A [10-100MB/s] pass 2.0 de0: address 00:00:e8:31:88:0a pci0: (vendor=0x1274,dev=0x1371) at 19.0 irq 10 ... ... afd0: failure to send ATAPI package command afd0: failure to execute ATAPI package command de0: autosense failed: cable problem? And then nothing happens. Regards Erik To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
