My Netgear FA310TX card (DEC 21140-AE) is also not liked by the 10/3 boot
floppy:
FreeBSD 2.2.5-971003-BETA #0: Fri Oct 3 12:55:57 GMT 1997
root@make.ican.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/BOOTMFS
CPU: Pentium Pro (199.31-MHz 686-class CPU)
Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x619 Stepping=9
Features=0xfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,<b11>,MTRR,PGE,MCA,C
MOV>
real memory = 100663296 (98304K bytes)
avail memory = 93368320 (91180K bytes)
Probing for devices on PCI bus 0:
chip0 <Intel 82440FX (Natoma) PCI and memory controller> rev 2 on pci0:0
chip1 <Intel 82371SB PCI-ISA bridge> rev 1 on pci0:7:0
chip2 <Intel 82371SB IDE interface> rev 0 on pci0:7:1
vga0 <VGA-compatible display device> rev 6 int a irq 10 on pci0:15
de0 <Digital 21140A Fast Ethernet> rev 34 int a irq 9 on pci0:17
de0: 21140A [10-100Mb/s] pass 2.2
de0: address 00:40:05:37:e8:f7
de0: enabling 100baseTX port
As soon as the "enabling 100baseTX" message shows on the console the link
light on the hub goes OUT, and doesn't come back on until I exit the
install. I've tried various link options with ifconfig with no luck. I
also tried connecting to a 10BaseT hub - same results.
The -current boot floppy seems to work OK with this card.
