Hi. Architecture: Dell Latitude Cpi i386. OS: FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE NIC's: 3COM Etherlink III and 3COM Megahertz 56k modem. Media: Floppy disks / FTP via local lan to the internet. This box had 3.4-STABLE running without a hitch three days ago. I tried to cvsup it to 4.0-STABLE and for some reason while building, i decided to use the -k flag on make installworld :( . After I finally got it running again I made some backups i wiped the whole system clean. So with my shiny new install disks, the setup was goin fine, the card inits and the installation begins. However within a meg or two of transfer it dies. What I have tried: 1) all possible irq/memory configurations within sysinstalls limits. Including the default recommendations, which did not work. 2) dissabling as many devices as possible via dell's BIO's, to try and free up the pool. 3) tried the card in a different slot, and remove the other card. 4) a different server 4) kick it down the freeken stairs. From the emergency shell if I bring the device down, then re-init, it begins transfer again, but only for a few seconds. Ping requests lag to around 300 until it goes down. Any ideas? Thanks. -- Paul. ======================================================================= Don't underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
