Performed an upgrade from 3.4s to 4.1s today. Upon restarting when all
was said and done, it detects my LNE100TX cards correctly as dc, but it
shows NO CARRIER. After mucho trouble shooting, I've found that the
cards work with 4.0r systems, and even some earlier 4.0s systems, but
starting with 4.1R, and maybe earlier, dc stopped working with LinkSys
LNE100TX cards. Booting off the release CDs also confirms it. (4.0r
works fine, 4.1r does not... across multiple systems including Athlon,
single PIII and dual PII.)
Just a heads-up for anyone else. Fortunately, I had extra cards of
another brand laying around.

PS - The upgrade was smooooth. Followed the directions in
/usr/src/UPDATING and everything (save the ether cards) turned out
cherry. On a dual Pii 333 system, it took about 30 minutes of downtime.
(Including some bonehead moves by me that cost prolly 10 minutes.)
FreeBSD rocks baby!!!!!
