hi, I asked a question before regarding 2 realtek pci nics (8139B & C) i had on a cyrix 586, 16MB RAM, 1.2 GB HDD. The general response was that maybe my rl chipset idīs werent recognized, I also got the suggestion of turning off plug-n-play in the BIOS, so i did but still no ethernet cards are displayed on configure-networking-interfaces while installing. So i tried a new nic, a 3com 3c905TX but freebsd still doesnt recognize this card. Nor did it recognize the realtek ones, (still). What could be wrong, i dont think im doing anything wrong i also get a hold of a verbose boot log (with -v boot) but i dont know how to view it (i know this would help).. thanks to all, oscar _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
