recently got my old 486dx4 up but am having problems booting freebsd 4.3. the 486dx4 is running on 8mb ram, 840mb hdd, prime mk-cII controller card (floppy, com1/2, lpt), Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 (ISA) NIC, trident vga and currently does not have a floppy or cd drive. the ide-controller is on-board. the installation was made on a different machine (650 duron) and the hdd was then transfered over. this is a GENERIC kernel i'm using. upon booting, i get the error as below (hand-typed): ----------------------------------------------------------- ...Regent copyright... Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz CPU: i486 SX (486-class CPU) Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x42a Stepping = 10 Features=0x2<VME> real memory = 8388608 (8192K bytes) avail memory = 3997696 (3904K bytes) Preloaded elf kernel "kernel" at 0xc044d000. md0: Malloc disk npx0: <math coprocessor> on motherboard npx0: 387 emulator isa0: <ISA bus> on motherboard ex0: <Intel Pro/10> at port 0x300-0x30f irq9 on isa0 ex0: Manual config, 8-bit bus, board id 0x000, stepping 0x0 ifmedia_set: no match for 0x25/0xffffffff panic: ifmedia_set uptime: 0s Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort ----------------------------------------------------------- i tried another same disk running netbsd-1.5 GENERIC and it loaded fine -- boots up and everything -- but somehow did not detected the NIC. this is a base-only (minimum) installation. am i wrong to assume that this is an NIC/IRQ/port number issue? or that somehow the NIC is not properly configured? would appreciate any help. thanks. ~as -- Alvin bsd140870@yahoo.co.uk _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
