>Description:
Kind of bored today and have been trying to install netbsd on an older box (installed freebsd 4.5 which seemed OK, however it would freeze randomly after several hours use, during heavy compilation of ports pkgs, not sure why, and I like netbsd better anyway).  So my office has become netbsd 1.5.3 interop lab.  Several network cards are shown below...

By the way, I think the install notes should mention the "consdev com0" boot command.  It's rather handy.

And, each boot says "WARNING: old BSD partition ID!" when this must be the freebsd 4.5 I installed last week..



Network cards tested; same order is for the msgbuf's below!
   * 3Com 3c905B-TX 10/100 Ethernet (PCI)
      * no workage.
      * link light on at boot time, it goes out briefly then back on, then when configuring network, it goes out completely, network doesn't function after that.
      * there's another pr on this one I think, with no real solution.
      * I have default kernel FreeBSD 4.5 successfully working with this card.
   * 3Com 3C509 Ethernet (ISA combo 10baseT/base2/AUI)
      * configures OK !  network 
      * sysinst forgets the configuration though (there's another pr on this bug too I think)
   * 3Com 3C515 Fast (10/100) EtherLink ISA
      * check out msgbuf, which looks OK...  however..
      * ifconfig does not show a network device, and..
         * ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS isapnp0: Device not configured
      * sysinst says there's no network device to configure.
      * FreeBSD 4.5 also chokes here.  In fact, sometimes it hangs on probing when this card is inserted!
   * D-link DFE-530TX, 10/100 (PCI)
      * seems to work ok.  rtk0.
      * data seems to flow fine.
   * Unknown PCI card from lab, 10/100.  
      * ASIC says "DAVICOM".  
      * This card is very, very small, the smallest PCI network card I've ever seen, no taller than 1.25".
      * seems to work as tlp0...
      * but check out the weird error message when I tried to change the network address.
      * data seems to flow fine.
