  Hi folks,
 Last night I put a network card (Digital DE205-AC) in my computer
thats running FreeBSD 2.1.  I edited the system kernel to recognize
the new network card.  I ran though the "config" cammand without
errors.  But after starting the "make" command on the kernel I get
the following error message:

loading kernel
if_le.o: Undefined symbol `_ether_sprintf' referenced from text segment
 
*** Error code 1

Stop


I was able to compile a system kernel before wihtout the network card.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?
