Yue) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc Subject: Help! NetBSD doesn't recognize my ethernet card! Date: 10 Feb 1996 20:55:20 GMT Organization: Stanford University: Computer Science Department, CA USA Lines: 12 Message-ID: <4fj0no$dac@Radon.Stanford.EDU> NNTP-Posting-Host: heron.stanford.edu I bought a new NE2000 compatible ISA ethernet card to run NetBSD 1.1. NetBSD itself was installed fine, but it just doesn't recognize the ethernet card. According to the installation note, if a NE2000 compatible card (ed0) is configured to use I/O address 0x280, IRQ 2 and memory address 0xd000, it'll be recognized, but 0x280 isn't one of the available I/O addresses on my card (only 0x300, 0x320, 0x340, and 0x360), so how do I ask NetBSD to use the default 0x300 on my card? Is there any configuration file in /etc that I can change to make NetBSD to look at 0x300 instead of 0x280? As you can tell, I'm a NetBSD newbie. Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.
