Sproule) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc Subject: Problems booting mac bsd 1.2 with NIC card Date: 20 Nov 1996 12:26:33 GMT Organization: Princeton University Dept of AstroPhysics Lines: 33 Distribution: na Message-ID: <56utdp$7ep@cnn.Princeton.EDU> NNTP-Posting-Host: astro.princeton.edu Hi, I am trying to install NetBSD 1.2 (GENERIC) for Macintosh on a MacIIci, 8mb, 160MB disk. Video= Radius MacII Full Page Ethernet: Asante Thick/TP, 16K, MC3NB If I have the NIC card in a slot lower than the video card I get this: ae0 at nubus0: address 00:00:94:04:f6:61, type MacCon Ethernet, 16k mem slot_noint() slot e (slot with videocard , this keeps scrolling) If the video card is in a lower slot, the machine will hang when it gets to this. ae0 at nubus0: address 00:00:94:04:f6:61, type MacCon Ethernet, 16k mem I have tried two Asante cards and an Apple NIC card, all do the same thing. Any suggestions? The machine will boot correctly w/o any NIC card. I have tried with and without the VLB int switch. Thanks, -b -- William J.
