Got this in -questions in case you're behind Jordan. Here is the patch to add that line in (I stuck it in the DEC 21xxx PCI card area): --- /usr/src/share/doc/handbook/install.sgml Wed Aug 28 03:30:45 1996 +++ install.sgml Wed Sep 4 23:16:36 1996 @@ -269,6 +269,7 @@ <item>Mylex LNP101 <item>SMC EtherPower 10/100 (Model 9332) <item>SMC EtherPower (Model 8432) + <item>SMC EtherPower(2) <item>Zynx ZX342 </itemize> <item>DEC FDDI (DEFPA/DEFEA) NICs Watch the paths there, I may have done something evil with the explicit ref to install.sgml. I don't have a model number for this one.

I asked this question on the list about a week earlier and got a positive response. Am now running a PCI EtherPower(2), devices de0 and de1, FreeBSD 2.1.5R, works great. Jordan: how about adding this card explicitly to the list of supported NIC's?
