I'm working on a machine with six Ethernet interfaces -- all Intel fxp's.
Two of them are on the motherboard, and there are two PCI cards each
containing two more. Oddly, the kernel recognizes five of the six
interfaces at boot time, but not the sixth. Here's the dmesg output:
ad0: Maxtor
My first message seems not to have included the intended dmesg output, so
I've included it again here. There should be an fxp5 -- it's on the same
card as the interface that becomes fxp4! -- but there isn't.
