The GENERIC kernel has no ed1 device compiled in it. You will have to go to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf and copy the file GENERIC to another name. Then edit that file, let's call it SITENAME after line 173 to include an ed1 device. Just copy the ed0 entry right above it, changing the device name to ed1 and putting in the address and irq you are using for ed1. Most modern cards don't use the iomem parameter, so 0xdC000 would be good for a filler. Save the file, exit the editor, and do "config SITENAME" . cd upward to ../../compile/SITENAME and do "make depend" and then "make". When the kernel is done, do: mv /kernel /kernel.old mv kernel /kernel and reboot. regards, Jim Durham To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
