I even tried disabling the PnP on the card and altering the PnP BIOS to reflect the IRQ was being used by "Legacy ISA"... I've done about everything I could to get this card to work under BSDI, but still no go. I have set up several other BSDI servers with almost the exact same configuration (except the others didn't have the plug 'n play version of the EtherExpress Pro) and they all work fine. Has anyone else had problems doing the above? Any information would be appreciated! --- Gregg Graubins <gregg@wwti.com> Whitewater Technologies, Inc. For PGP info, finger gregg@wwti.com
