I have just installed (for the first time, so I would have to be considered a newbie at FreeBSD but I do have a greater amount of knowledge concerning Linux (I know I know, I should switch - well that is what I am attempting to try)  well Im running into a snag, my LinkSys Ether16 (NE2000 compatible device) is not being detected as it should.  here is a clip from the boot messages

ie0: unknown board_id: a0
ie0 not found at 0x300
ep0 not found at 0x300
ex0 not found
le0 not found at 0x300

the first line points that it found the card on ie0, but the board_id is all messed up, if I change around the IRQ's and IO addies I sometimes get differing results for the board_id, but in the end of tring them all I still can not get the device to load.

Yes, the device is PnP, but I have turned that all off (as linux was having problems with the PnP side for this NIC)

Any pointers on what is going on here would be great

TIA
Ray Slakinski
