Hi, I have 2.0.5R on a 486 with 2 3COM 3C509 Etherlink III's. Things worked well with one card, and I built a kernel with support for the 2nd card. I created a new config, added a new device entry, commented out everything else on the port addresses of the cards (nothing important, or even there as shown by failures of previous probes). I changed /etc/sysconfig. I built the kernel and booted it. The kernel comes up, but when it comes time for the ifconfig, the ifconfig takes a while. In fact, netstat -i sits there for a long time as well. In both cases, this happens when processing the 2nd card. I have used 3com's cfg3c5x9 to configure the cards as follows: I/O Base (300, 200) IRQ (10, 3) Boot Prom: disabled Transceiver: Auto Select (ifconfig shows UTP as result of autoselect) Network Driver Optimization: Windows or OS/2 client Plug and Play: disabled Anyone have an idea what I screwed up this time?
