We have installed FreeBSD on a AST computer, 486DX-2/66 with 16MB. AHA-1542CF
(works fine) and 3C509 card for network.

First, BSD aborts when installing if 3C509 is configured at 0x300 with
IRQ 10. Solution: configure IRQ5 at installation and change to 10 after.

When BSD is installed, we can not made telnet's and ftp's. Telnet will not
show incoming characters (only if the remote is an Alpha/OpenVMS ¨?), etc.

Any idea?
