cardbus configuration from FreeBSD 4.9 to 5.2.1 RC2
I have a Compaq Presario 910US that dual boots Win2K Pro and FreeBSD 4.9 STABLE. I installed 5.2.1 RC2 on a spare hard drive this morning; but can't get it to detect my wireless card (Linksys WPC11 v.3). In FreeBSD 4.9, I got my wireless card working by: 1. Commenting out the irq and io lines in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf 2. Adding the following lines to /etc/pccard.conf: debuglevel 4 irq 4 7 io 0x278-0x378 3. Adding the following line to /etc/rc.conf: pccard_enable="YES" In FreeBSD 5.2.1 RC2: 1. I performed all of the steps described above for FreeBSD 4.9 2. I added the following line to /etc/rc.conf: devd_enable="YES" Unfortunately, my wireless card is still not detected. Here are some relevant lines from dmesg: cbb0: mem 0xffbfe000-0xffbfefff at device 10.0 on pci0 cardbus0: on cbb0 pccard0: <16-bit PCCard bus> on cbb0 pcib0: device has no interrupts cbb: Unable to map IRQ... device_probe_and_attach: cbb0 attach returned 12 Adding the following lines to /boot/device.hints and rebooting did not help: hint.cbb.0.at="pci" hint.cbb.0.irq="4" hint.cbb.0.maddr="0x278" I am still running the GENERIC kernel. Any advice? Thanks, Andrew Gould ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I got it to install something around 5.1 by using a USB CD-ROM. It should also work to boot off the CDROM and do the rest of the install over FTP. -- Dan Pelleg ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

PXE Booting 5.2.1-RC2 on Thinkpad X31
Hi there, I've got 4.9-RELEASE running on my Thinkpad, and am trying to netboot 5.2.1-RC2. The laptop has no floppy or cdrom; I'd previously managed to install a pre-release 5.2 on a separate hard drive, but it's pretty unstable, doesn't like ACPI, has trouble finding devices, hence the 5.2.1-RC2. I've been trying various combinations of tftpboot and nfs to get 5.2 booting on the thing--I have finally gotten the laptop to boot the contents of the 5.2.1-RC2 kernel and mfsroot floppies, and gotten to a setup screen: -> pxeboot include /pxeroot/boot/device.hints load /pxeroot/kernel /lad -t mfs_root /pxeroot/mfsroot However, no matter what I do, the machine inevitably freezes after a few seconds. There's no error messages, I can't get an emergency shell open, nothing. Can anyone give me some hints as to what I might be doing wrong? Has anyone gotten 5.x running nicely on a Thinkpad X31? Any ideas would be appreciated. Cheers, -John ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
