Remember, cards have all kinds of fancy features and to take advantage of them the manufacturers should be teaching driver writers how to get them to work. After all, it is those fancy features that help sell the card, and if you can't use them, why bother using that card? Just as an aside: If you need a tester for the 3c905c stuff, consider me one of your victims. I've got one, and although I'm not rolling it out in a netboot role, I feel it's only proper to give back to the community that gave me my Netbooting FreeBSD on a 3c905x card. :-) Thanks, Gerald. =========================================================================== This Mail was sent to netboot mailing list by: Gerald Abshez <gerald@mobymail.com> To get help about this list, send a mail with 'help' as the only string in it's body to majordomo@baghira.han.de.
