Could someone enlighten me as to the cause and soln to }the error msg "shared memory error (device conflict?)" from the 3c503 }driver? } }I'm installing 386bsd 0.1 from the InfoMagic Aug'92 CD-ROM. The error }occurs when booting the Tiny BSD floppy or from hd. This seems like a }hardware problem to me, yet the system works fine with Chameleon (TCPIP for }MS-Windows). _Just_once_, I did observe the system to boot properly }(printing 3c503 Enet addr & other params), but haven't been able to repeat }this miracle. } }I haven't found anything in the FAQ from hrd769.af.mil. Check section 3.1.5. While it isn't SPECIFICALLY about your card, it does go into a reasonable amount of detail about shared memory conflicts... This error was the one that actually got that question into the FAQ. -- ------ TSgt Dave Burgess NCOIC AL/Management Information Systems Office Brooks AFB, TX
