Hello!

I've installed 386BSD correct, but I'm not able to establish a
connection to my 2nd computer. The 2nd computer works well and there
are sure no problems with the ethernet-card. The ethernet-card in the
Peacock 386/20 is a FD0490 EtherBoard16. I've installed it for IRQ2, but
386BSD says the following:

ne0 ethernet address 00:00:4d:21:65:97 at 0x300 irq9 on isa

?? I installed ther card on all available IRQ's(2,3,4,5,12) but it
will always be detected on IRQ 9. Then I type the following:

>ifconfig ne0 192.1.1.2		# I type in
<neinitstartartstartart		# 386BSD answers
>route add default 192.1.1.10 (The IP-Number for my 2nd computer).

Now I tried to start ftp but I was never successful. Does someone knows
the answer for the problem? The rest of the peripherie: 8 MB RAM, 50
MB HD, VGA(an old one: MORSE KP 1000 EVGA) etc...

ciao, Hermann Behrens
