I have an older piece of hardware that I wanted to netboot, so I set-up
/etc/ethers with the hardware-address-to-hostname-mapping. To my dismay,
when I then tried to start rarpd on the i386/1.3 based system I got this:
# rarpd -d /dev/de0
rarpd: error: BIOCSETIF: Device not configured
I'm able to use tcpdump and I have BPF support gen'ed (ala GENERIC config).
(BTW, the system has an SMC EtherPower 10/100 card)
I'm sure I'm being dumb and forgetting something... what do I need to do?
