Hi Ben, O! How I love Microsoft's version of text. Even more than I love html email. :( On Tue, 2004-02-03 at 08:42, Ben Carlisle wrote: > Folks, > Spent some time scouring the archive with no results. > > I am trying to setup m0n0wall on an old piece of hardware, a PI/166. I have two ISA NICs in the box, both of which are NE2k-compats (they're even the same model). I have FreeBSD 4.8 installed on the box, and when I boot my normal kernel, I can detect them both (although I did have to recompile the GENERIC kernel to add device ed1). > > However, when I boot m0n0wall (from CD), everything boots fine and I get the console menu. I select option 1, expecting to assign my NICs, and the list of 'Valid interfaces' is empty! I tried entering ed0 and ed1 but neither worked. (Invalid interface name). Scrolling up in the dmesg, I get a message that says "Initializing PC cards ... failed. (probably no PC card controller present)" Might this have something to do with it? > > Now, I'm very new to both FreeBSD and m0n0wall. I'm hoping it is a drastic oversight on my part. But I cannot find any references to this stuff in existing documentation. Does anyone have any idea what is going on here, or have some things I can try? Again, I'm a newbie to this stuff so I would greatly appreciate any assistance. ISA NICs are not supported, it seems. 3Com 3C09 ISA NICs (the best ISA NICs ever made) aren't supported, so I assume no ISA NICs are supported. -- Regards, Hilton Travis Email: Hilton at QuarkAV dot com Manager, Quark AudioVisual Phone: +61-(0)7-3343-3889 Quark Computers Phone: +61-(0)419-792-394 (Brisbane, Australia) http://www.QuarkAV.com/ Open Source Projects: http://www.ares-desktop.org/ http://www.mamboband.org/ Non Linear Video Editing Solutions & Digital Audio Workstations Network Administration, SmoothWall Firewalls, NOD32 AntiVirus Conference and Seminar AudioVisual Production and Recording War doesn't determine who is right.
