Hello Everyone,

I am having a problem configuring my ED1 driver with FreeBSD 1.0 Release.
I believe the problem would happen with Epsilon also.  Anyway here it is:

I am getting:

ed1:device timeout

I do an IFCONFIG with all the proper address and stuff.
After getting the error, I do an ifconfig ed1 and get all the addresses
with the following parameters:

no trailers,up,running,broadcast,SIMPLEX..
The SIMPLEX is what's bothering me.  I have never seen it before and
it isn't documented anywhere.  Any help would be appreciated..Thanks..

..Sal
