Looks like you might need to recheck your kernel configs. dmesg should read something like this: ep1: <3Com 3C509B-TPO EtherLink III (PnP)> at port 0x210-0x21f irq 3 on isa0 ep1: Ethernet address 00:a0:24:b8:b9:e5 ep2: <3Com 3C509B-TPO EtherLink III (PnP)> at port 0x220-0x22f irq 5 on isa0 ep2: Ethernet address 00:60:08:03:d5:06 Beech To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
