Sorry for repeating the message, but I made a mistake and sent it with someone 
else's name:

Hi,

        I'm trying to configure my kernel to support a network card for my PCI bus. Can
I just add a line like
        device mydev0 at pci? port 0x340 net irq 11 iomem 0xd8000 vector mydevintr
in my Kernel Configuration File?

        It seems to me that, when I issue the "config MYKERNEL" command, the config
utility does little more than ignoring the line.

        If I had
        device mydev0 at isa? port 0x340 net irq 11 iomem 0xd8000 vector mydevintr
config would create some entries in the file ioconf.c.

        Could you give me some tip, or point me something useful about configuring PCI
devices?
        Please reply me directly, because I don't visit this newsgroup very often.

        Thank you very much,
                Filipe M. de Araujo, Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal
