It was DHCP task to provide whatever neccesary.It failed. 2) Some other device is using IRQ 5 on your machine. You need to either turn off whatever hardware is using IRQ 5, or convince FreeBSD to assign a different IRQ to the card. No other device is using IRQ 5 (besides even if . Why I was not = informed about it? Why was irq 5 choosen by system silently without warning me?
