I am trying to bring up picobsd .31 (FreeBSD3.0) on a computer with a 
built-in pci Ethernet interface using an Am79C971 chip.  My 100697 
Snapshot has the latest pci lnc driver (1.5).

The probe returns:

lnc1: <PCNet/PCI Ethernet adapter> rev 0x25 int a irq 10 on pci0.7.0
lnc1: NE2100 (C-LANCE) address 00:e0:c5:fc:1e:17

so at least it is listening/talking.

But it fails to initialise, either on startup or on executing ifconfig 
giving the subject message.

BIOS does indicate 1022 for it during POST.

Would appreciate a nudge in the right direction.  List only seems to have 
references to problems previous to the pci driver.
