Brooks, Thanks for your response. I have further information. First, I did try "make depend" successfully. Then I ran the "make", and this produced: ioconf.o(.data+0x6ec): undefined reference to 'xldriver' Error code 1 > It shouldn't be.

This is what typing "ifconfig xl0" says: myname# ifconfig xl0 xl0: flags=8843< UP, BROADCAST, RUNNING SIMPLEX, MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet <IP address> netmask 0xffffffc0 broadcast 38.233.242.191 ether 00:10:5a:26:7e:37 media 10BaseT/UTP <half-duplex> autoselect supported media: autoselect 100BaseTX <full-duplex> 100BaseTX <half-duplex> Since your message I went back into /stand/sysinstall and noticed that it did write that information to "rc.conf" which didn't seem to be there before: ifconfig_xl0 inet <ip> netmask <netmask> network-interfaces "xl0 lo0" I don't know why the "lo0" is in there... Also, of interest may be that when I bootup, I notice the following line when it's trying to load the interface / ethernet card: autoneg not complete, no carrier. Forcing half-duplex Any further ideas?
