I'm trying to install 3C503-16 (Etherlink II/16) card in the PCI (SIS) machine running 2.0.5-RELEASE. Looks like driver requires shared memory to be present on the card. however memory test fails (in dos) when I enable shared ram at C8000, but test passes ok when shared ram is disabled. so the question is whether PCI/ISA bridge is at fault (I'm getting a message from freebsd telling me: pci0:5: vendor=0x1039, device=0x496, class=bridge [not supported] ) However I wonder why it fails on RAM test in dos anyway? Thanx for any clues. Please e-mail directly. AGL
