I am not able to get networking up on my Dell Inspiron
4000 with my NETGEAR FA410TX. On bootup, it appears as
though BSD recognizes the pccard "NETGEAR" "FA410TX"
but I always get the error: "pccard[53]: driver
allocation failed for NETGEAR (FA410TX): Device not
configured. BSD never creates the device "ed0".The
/var/log/messages file isn't much help either, it says
"Device not configured". I have tried both pcmcia
slots and several different PCMCIA ethernet cards
(i.e. Linksys EtherFast 10/100 CardBus PC Card:
PCMPC200 & 3COM Megahertz 10/100 LAN CardBus:
3CXFE575CT). 

I am somewhat of a "newbie" to freeBSD however I do
have a background with several flavors of UNIX. I have
searched the archives and tried everything I could
find. I need help. Oh yeah, we're using FreeBSD 4.1 as
our development platform so that's the version I'm
stuck with.
