NIC card not showing up during 5.1 install
i am building a new server for a client and my hardware vendor changed my usual hardware profile to use an 800fsb ASUS Mainboard, it runs the Intel 865G chipset. I have tried installing 5.1 but it cannot see to onboard Ethernet and seems to get upset running the mouse when the XF86 server starts up for some reason. i have 2 bootable installer discs for 5.1 made from ISO images some months ago. I had a look at the current HARDWARE.TXT in the first disc and the network card is supported so it says Intel 82562-based Fast Ethernet NICs when i get the prompt during installation to configure network connections i only get a sellection of four serial connections PPP SLIP etc. I remember being given a choice of one NIC as well so, does this mean it might be there somewhere? when i run a 'netstat -i' i cant see anything that looks like a NIC. Just serial ports etc. I assume this is only running interfaces, correct? what should i be looking for? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

OK, this is what i get: [NIC entry, not the rest] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:8:0: class=0x202 card=0x80f81043 chip=0x10508086 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' class = network subclass= ethernet I minimal install from 5.1 made from the ISO images from the FTP site. as in a basic install using the /stand/sysinstall blah blah. i'm not very good with installs as i have never really had much trouble before. should i make a CD from some 'CURRENT' version? all my hardware should be supported according to the HAREWARE.txt in the CD image i have for 5.1.
