I've gotten the cgd dist.fs-noIS that is supposed to fix some problems, and indeed, it did fix the card-not-found-on-warm-boot problem, but I still cannot get the network card to talk to the outside world (nor can I ping the machine from elsewhere) During boot, it tells me that it finds we0 properly, and once its booted, I run: # ifconfig we0 136.177.80.80 # route add default 136.177.80.1 (My machine is 80.80, our gateway is 80.1) I know the card is good, because it can talk to other cards during diagnostics, and the RX light blinks rapidly all the time. But still, it appears dead to 386BSD. Any help appreciated, Noel Gorelick (ngorelic@speclab.cr.usgs.gov)
