Ethernet-Address will always be 0:0:0:0:0:0. This problem seems very similar to problem report kern/21623, but with the SiS 735 chipset instead of the SiS 630E. >How-To-Repeat: Install FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE on a ECS K7S5A motherboard (an SiS 735 chipset) with integrated NIC. >Fix: None yet. I tried using the special case in if_sis.c for the SiS 630: sis_read_cmos(sc, dev, (caddr_t)&eaddr, 0x9, 6); This resulted in an ethernet address (don't know if the address is valid), but it still can't find the PHY. dmesg says: sis0: Ethernet address: 00:d0:09:f4:7b:cf sis0: MII without any PHY! So this may not be related to the situation with the SiS 630. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
