I am adding a 2nd NIC for a cable modem. It is a Netgear FA311. I had no problems configuring the first card, a Netgear FA310TX some time ago using pn0. I've added the line: device pn1 (with no additional parameters) to the config file, and then executed: /usr/sbin/config NEWKERNEL (which reports the new compile directory on completion) cd ../../compile/NEWKERNEL make depend make make install pn1 is not recognised on reboot nor with ifconfig -a. The card is working fine. The only think I've noticed is that 'make' completes in about 2-3 mins which seems way too short. Can't think what else might be wrong - any clues anyone?
