Add :

	bmtphy*	at mii? phy ?			# Broadcom BCM5201 and BCM5202 PHYs

to your kernel configuration.  This will match the PHY in the 3C905C =
(i.e.
OUI 0x001018 model 0x0017).  I found this by looking at :

	/usr/src/sys/dev/mii/miidevs.h
	/usr/src/sys/dev/mii/*.c

You could also add :

	ukphy*	at mii? phy ?			# generic unknown PHYs

to your kernel configuration.  ukphy will match all PHY's that have not =
been
already matched.  However, if there is a specific driver for your PHY, =
you'll
almost certainly get better results.

See :

	http://www.netbsd.org/Hardware/mii.html

for a description of MII and PHY's.  If you've met AUI interfaces =
before, it's
a similar concept.
