To: FreeBSD User Questions List Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just found one of these lying around, and I'm trying to put 2.2.7 on it. It finds all the devices successfully, but when trying to initialize the ethernet controller (lnc1 via PCI), I get initialization failures. I searched through the mailing lists, but found no real solution. It seems some kind of shared IRQ thing is going on...? I can't fiugre out how to get into the BIOS to check, though (any ideas?). Is there a good solution for solving this without having the ability to compile a new kernel? Thanks.
