gawd no! you would even suggest such a thing in public? sheesh! :-) this is a thinkpad t40p. 4.9-release cdrom boots through to em0 media just fine, and i just retested that assertion without moving any wires etc. i tried booting wigh acpi off. no change. it stalls scanning for dhcp servers, which do exist, and then puts up the NetworkConfiguration menu. if i say no to dhcp and hand configure, no packets leave the interface. randy _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
