Lines: 32 Message-ID: <41as0k$hro@presence.lglobal.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: presence.lglobal.com Hello, I'm trying to install Free 2.0.5 on a SiS EiSA board. It doesn't seem to find my 3Com #3CX509 Combo card. Upon using -c on boot I see the card set at irq 10 drq -1 etc etc. i've tried running the dos EiSA configuration prog. to set the irq status to 10 , as well I've tried to use UserConfig to set the irq to 3 (what the card was at previously). I've even tried moving the card(having used the EISA config of course) but still no go for finding the card. In Free BSD UserConfig I can probe the card once and then but a second prob return only 0x0. An Attach on ep0 gives : not getting bios etc. etc. Address. Ff.ff.ff.ff.ff.ff not getting bios etc. etc. Any suggestions. I tried disabling any extraneous devices as suggested in the install but still no go.
