The FreeBSD Handbook, at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-hw.html says: >* Intel EtherExpress ISA (not recommended due to driver instability) These cards use a National Semiconductor chip that was used in a few Cisco routers as well. It has a very clean interface, and I'd begun to adapt the ed driver to it. (One thing that's nice about it is that you can use REP INSW and REP OUTSW instructions on x86 to transfer data with no wait states, giving you the maximum transfer rate that's possible on an ISA bus.) The spec sheet isn't generally available because National Semiconductor isn't promoting the part, but Intel and Olicom still sell a lot of these boards. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hardware Wed Jan 10 13:21:42 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from sasami.jurai.net (sasami.jurai.net [63.67.141.99]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 85C9B37B6A4 for ; Wed, 10 Jan 2001 13:21:24 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (winter@localhost) by sasami.jurai.net (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id QAA01435; Wed, 10 Jan 2001 16:21:21 -0500 (EST) Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2001 16:21:21 -0500 (EST) From: "Matthew N.

I've got a port of the NetBSD MI driver in progress that should fix the stability problems. This card uses the i82586 or i82596 ethernet controller. The Intel EtherExpress 100 ISA (and EISA/PCI refered to as the "EtherExpress Pro/100A") are not supported. The EISA/PCI adapters use the i82556 chipset which is somewhat different from the i82557-9 chipsets. > These cards use a National Semiconductor chip that was used in a few > Cisco routers as well.

The 4.2-STABLE snapshot dated 10-Jan-2001 didn't have the driver as part of its kernel -- apparently the mfc of this driver neglected to do that as well as neglected to include the MAKEDEV bits for it as well. Building a new kernel on a newly CVSUP'd 4.2-STABLE machine and using the it to replace the kernel on a 4.2-RELEASE floppy does get the card recognized, but that's only because sysinstall doesn't know how to make the correct device. Putting a 'new' systinstall on the mfsroot disk didn't seem to work for me (the /stand directory on mfsroot looks queer...). If I manually made the /dev entries on the mfsroot disk for aacd, would that get me any further?

The system is very very slow, like on an old 386. I have this problems since I updatet from an Athlon 500 to this Athlon Thunderbird 700. I have on the same Harddisk Win98 and Win2K and they work without problems, fast and stable. This situation is disastrous for me, because I had to work under FreeBSD, so I hope, that somebody can help. I tried the Generic-Kernel and my own Kernel-config, but the result was the same. kernel output: Copyright (c) 1992-2000 The FreeBSD Project.

Last I looked MAKEDEV didn't support the aacd devices, except in CURRENT. I did get a 4.2-RELEASE install going on it, but things got kind of weird. I did the install with a 5.0-snap install floppies and a 4.2-RELEASE CD. Install went OK, and I was able to get it running with a 4.2-STABLE kernel (built elsewhere) with the aac driver. I rebuilt world and I noticed that periodically during the installworld that the process would just kind of stop -- switching vtys to a vmstat screen would show the disk drive @ 100%. Then it would take off again like everything was normal. After buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel and installworld I rebooted. During the reboot process the kernel "gave up" on 7 buffers, and on reboot my / is dirty, except I get nothing but "command timed out..", even after power cycling the host (HP LC2000, Dual 866 CPUs, 1GB RAM) and the array cabinet (HP Rackstorage 12 w/6 disks). Any ideas? Did I oops by running a 4.2-STABLE kernel with 4.2-RELEASE binaries and libs?

Is your L2 cache turned on for all memory? The K7M BIOS does not enable L2 caching for anything other than base memory. With the cache off, the system feels like a 200 MHz Pentium. Try executing the following: /usr/sbin/memcontrol set -b 0 -l 268435456 write-back Replace that big number with the amount of memory you have, in bytes.

The speed of the system was like a 200MHz Pentium before I made the BIOS-upgrade. Now it is fast on Win98 and Win2k (1771 points with 3DMark2000).

Scan are advertising 761 based motherboards; NEC have a 761 machine which is apparently out now. In any case, there have been review boards available for a good month or so.
