failure installing 5.2.1: cbb0: Unsupported card type detected

[David Landgren]

Hello,
I have an old laptop, an HP XE3 OmniBook. Nice machine from an 
ergonomical point of view, and I was thinking of recycling it by 
installing FreeBSD.

I downloaded the ISO for 5.2.1. It starts to boot just fine, but during 
the kernel load it dies with the message

cbb0: Unsupported card type detected
I tried selecting Safe mode, but it freezes earlier with
cbb0: [MPSAFE]
A few lines above it says
cbb0: <02Micro 026933 PCI-CardBus Bridge> irq 9 at device 4.0 on pci2
Is there any way to get around this? I've seen a few messages on the 
subject in the archives but apparently these all involve running 
systems, something I don't yet have :(

Or should I try 4.10 instead?
Thanks for the clues,
David

cbb0: Unsupported card type detected

[Søren Vrist]

Im running:
# uname -a
FreeBSD laptop.seet.dk 5.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE #4: Tue Jan 21 
01:02:07 CET 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NEWLAPTOP 
 i386

And my dmesg contains the following about cbb
# dmesg|grep cbb
cbb0:  irq 10 at device 5.0 on pci1
cardbus0:  on cbb0
pccard0: <16-bit PCCard bus> on cbb0
cbb0: Unsupported card type detected

Does that mean that my cardbus brigde isn't supported by freebsd or 
something??
the machine freezes if i stuff in my 16bit Netgear MA401 wireless pcmcia 
card in...
And i really would like to use that card!

kind regards
Søren Vrist
