How do you perform the boot? Right after machine hard-boot or there is
possibility that _any_ software (even card BootRom) writes/reads _anything_
to/from your network card?

And there is third circumstance: Carefully read
the "DISKLESS and fxp0 problems" story! I have similar problems
with fxp0. ("fxp0: device timeout" - I'm getting crazy from
this message... Really.)
It looks like FreeBSD has _BIG_ problems with PCI bus!
Please, Is there anybody, who can make the same tests, as I made in
"DISKLESS and fxp0 problems"??? Please...
I'm ready to go to freebsd-hackers, to make some hacks in kernel, to make
more tests. But where? Is there any PCI master? Does anybody know which
difference is between
pci_open(1): mode 1 addr port (0x0cf8) is 0x8000005c
and
pci_open(1): mode 1 addr port (0x0cf8) is 0x80006018
?
