Previously used 3.1. I got quite familiar with 3.1 and it worked fine for a year. Now, with 3.4, when you do a boot -c then "visual" to configure your (say) network card. My ed0 device is setup at 0x300, IRQ 10. However, the configuration defaults to 0x280, IRQ10. I make all the changes and save them, but it's only good for that boot session. I was under the impression that when you saved these settings, they would be used again. After much frustration, I just re-compiled the kernel so that the default ed0 setting is 0x300, IRQ 10. Almost seems like using a car crusher to flatten a pop can. Is there a new boot process? Where are the results of my saving the configuration in "visual" mode? And then, where do I now put them?
