I'm feeling a little feeble-minded for not being able to
outhink some transistors and bits but I cant recall how
to do this correctly.

I'm getting 'ed0: device timeout' during boot and cant
get the (ethernet) netwoking working...

The device is
ed0 irq 10 port 300 (this is correct and works under dos & NT)

Other devices
fdc0/6/3f0
wdc0/14/1f0
lpt0/7
sio0/4/3f8
sio1/3/2f8
sc0/1/60

These seem to be working (havent tested the com ports but the
probe finds them ok). All other drivers disabled.

Boot displays

ed0: flags 8863<up,br,not,ru,si,mul (abreviated)> MTU 1500
 inet 204.120.68.11 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 204.120.68.255

add host unix1.hve.com: gateway localhost: file exists
starting routing deamons: routed ed0: device timeout
                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is probably simple but I'm afraid maybe so am I...
What might I have done to offend it?

Help is appreciated, email would not burden the rest of the
world with more traffic...

Thanks
