Hi,

I am experiencing some rather odd results with my FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE box.

For some reason my PCI RealTek (NE-2000 clone) network card is detecting as ed1
rather than the first (read: only) network card in the system.

Does this have something to do with strange motherboard PCI slot ordering?

A sample dmesg output:

ed1: <NE2000 PCI Ethernet (RealTek 8029)> rev 0x00 int a irq 10 on pci0.11.0
ed1: address 00:00:01:00:a6:f7, type NE2000 (16 bit) 


And in the kernel config file, i've specified:

device ed0


I thought this might have something to do with specifying ed0 as a device, and
the card gets logically assigned ed1, but the NIC wont detect at all without
that line.

It works fine as it is, i guess, but i am very curious to work this one out :-)




Regards,

Chris.
